Great work so far, the colour looks amazing

Exhausts are looking good as are those brake hubs. Are the cooling fan covers conical? They appear 3d. That must've been tricky to bend the pe just right.

Your right on both counts, yes the flat photoetch part has a gap in it & you have to bend & curve it to align the ends together, rather tricky!! I glues my fingers together & to the part several times & theres 4 of them!!!

Thanks guys!!

This is looking good. I have to do a search on Alex's F50 to see what you are talking about. The weathering on the exhaust though, is that clear orange sprayed on?

Yes the exhaust was sprayed with clear yellow in places, Clear orange for most of it & then some clear red in areas to darken the colour. Its hard to show in a photo all the shading

Well I was never quite happy with the 1K clearcoat I used a year or so ago when this was painted. So i decided to reclearcoat it with a 2K clear coat (while also doing my Lambo) & am now very happy with the result!!!

Hasnt been polished yet!!! Finish is alot smoother than before & already glossier than hours of polishing!

Progress should start to move along now that I am happy with the paint
Thanks for looking!
