Looking very good Paul. IMO (I know, I know) I think the rear spolier would look good in silver.

What's a "spolier"? Anyway, black is the new in!
Does that mean I've already blown my chances of an award from one judge at Donnington!
Bodyshop shop manager thinks I should pimp the wolfrace wheels with cranberry body colour painted in the wheels to be seen through the slots. My wife likes the idea of this, perhaps you could suggest silver to her for these

Whole car has been painted as it previously was and left Spike's workshop April 1991 ready for Paul Stafford to race. Because it looks the same, some people have commentated "what have you done?" When you see car you'll realise it has been finished to a much higher standard than it left paint shop Spike used.
I meant what colour was the rear spoiler. I saw Paul race the car many times - a great advert for clubmans motorsport.

Black. Paul did try racing car with spolier fitted, but preferred the look without it fitted. It came with car and I prefer the look with it fitted.

That looks bloody superb. I don't know if it's the photos but that colour looks just right - not too bright, IMO. Looks to have been a very good spray shop you entrusted with the work. Good luck with fitting the rest of it out.

Replaced my master cylinder for a new part from rockauto:

And then I took it for a quick blast up to the airport and back. The brakes feel better than before.
