I've been busy again!
After my car was hit while parked, I have finally got it all painted, on the final run now, just got to put it all together again!
Very special thanks to Triton (Mark) who sorted out my fibreglass - TOP BLOKE, so buy loads of his seats!!!

If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

That's a very shiny blue colour. What colour is it exactly?
And what's your silencer made from? Pink Perspex?

Its JFV Trophy Blue, the MG colour, I was going to paint the exhaust protector in the same colour, but forgot all about it until you mentioned it -
bugger!

What is the plastic sheet you have used to mask it? When I last did a large section of painting I had what I thought was a great idea to use
industrial type cling film to mask parts of the car, not thinking that the paint wouldn't stick to it particularly well - small breeze on any
loose sections and I flakes of paint blowing around!
Looks great by the way.

Andy, it is made for the job 3M masking sheet. It comes on a roll and unfurles to a car sized bag which you cover the car. You then cut out the panels
to be painted and mask back. Makes it very easy.

The rolls are quite expensive, but a bodyshop should sell you 20' for about £5.00
