So many options.

I Do like glossy black, but tis such a lest to clean.

Déjà vu is a nice colour but not sure it's what on after.

I think I might just go with my initial thought and get orange, but maybe a darker version... See how we go.

When I will take the bonnet off ill let you know, but I had my head in the boot the other day and couldn't see any spots with a lack of paint..

Nah not really a big fan of yellow cars. I like the BA XRs in yellow. But wouldn't have one myself..

Haha

I'm that impatient. I started removing the doors tonight. Took me about 1 hr just to do the drivers door. But now I know the way to do it will be much faster for the remaing 3.

Got the window and all the electrics out of it. Will make the next spray way easier... When I get around to it

Much easier to take the front guards to get to the bolts.
The doors are a prick to line up again when you put them on.

Get some seam sealer for where the hinges bolt up if you want to prevent rust there, keeps the water and dirt out.
