mwilkinson Posted May 27, 2023 Share Posted May 27, 2023 (edited) You can get the glass professionally polished to remove light scratches. There is a company near me that does it. They are coming out to remove my windscreen, rear screen and qtr glass on Tuesday ready for the car to go off for chemical cleaning to the same place as yours. I'll get them to look at my side glass and advise on whether they can polish them and how much it will cost. I'll let you know what they say.

wile e coyote Posted June 10, 2023 Author Share Posted June 10, 2023 Not much to add New suspension painted as they come from Toyota scratched up with thin paint Bit more assembly done to turbo side with shield to add 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter P Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 Nice. I’ve noticed similar with the new U.K. brakes on mine. Not used much and still relatively new but the thin paint is already coming off. Think they will be redone at some stage. Keep going mate, it’s all the small details that make the build. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
