Ink is back from malaga rust repair, they took extensive photos as the rust repair progressed, so here they are for all to see! Still looks a bit ghetto in primer, but the main thing is it's rust free now... Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

They literally gave me a CD with over 60 flicks, really happy with the work and was great to be kept in the loop regarding the progress of my car!

****!!!! rust much!!!! get sum paint on it and cruise it man

looking good alex. hope to see you out cruising soon.

just wondering if you brought new rust panels for the front and rear windscreen sections or did they custom make them for you??

Front panel and rear panel underneath back screen were bought and welded in the rest of the work is custom fabrication etc etc..

far out thats alot of rust there.. looks like they did a great job man, gona look gd all painted again

that's alot of rust, mines going in next week roughly same amount, wonder how much they gonna slug me for it

Small update: Some fool drove into the back of my car after BDO and i ended up getting my car back from the panel shop with multicoloured panels! I enrolled in a Tafe night course to learn how to paint my car, and i got my car back from the panel shop just in time...All i need is some time off from my university commitments to give it a good coat of paint!

le rear bumper extension?

Yeah the panel shop sourced a bumper with the LE lip, i don't know whether i like it or not at the moment... Found the last time sheet at the motorplex, the piggyback ecu helped me knock off another second, pretty happy with a 13 sec daily

if u find an le front lip and rear boot extension it will look really nice or are u not after that look? if ur not planning on doing that then the rear bumper will look out of place imo.

you should probaby throw on some clear tail lights to clean it up a bit

I finally got around to my back yard paint job, didn't turn out to bad. I still need to buff it with some compound and i need to re do the boot lid, as my poor prep work was evident! haha

I repainted the Calais front end again, as I wasn't happy with the first attempt and subsequent finish... Im eagerly hanging out for my Uni holidays, as I'm keen as to paint more cars, thinking about purchasing a bunky VL to practise my prep and paint techniques I'm hell keen on this colour, its called lime squeeze and its on the 2010 ford festivas haha Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

time to clean up your engine bay man
