        No matter how much you polish it wil always be dirty until you remove that unflattering decal. (was going to call it vinyl vomit, but that would be too harsh )

        Seriously though, lovely car.

                Looks really nice, but as above, the stickers would have to go! They just look cheap and nasty.... I understand they have been on there a long time, but that could easily be solved by machine polishing it after to remove any marks

                  They have grown on me mayb 1 day they will get pulled off but for now they are staying plus some taxi drivers insurance is now paying an extra £120 to have new 1's custom made after he opened his door on my rear arch

                            The thing is, if you wanted to put them back on it wouldnt exactly be hard to replicate them... its a common crappy font, any graphics place could knock them up in 5 minutes flat!

                            Doesnt this look much better? (Excuse the 2 min rush job on the 'shop!)



                            To avoid having the same conversation on 2 seperate threads (the steering wheel one) what you have is as mint as damn near possible low mileage Coupe which is 99.9% standard.
                            Most people would want to keep it that way, Im sure I dont need to tell you its very rare!
                            I would have it entered into concourse events personally.
                            It seems you are falling into the trap of its previous owner... wanting to cover it in untasteful/tacky junk!

                              I do see where your coming from and short term yes I will be entering it into concours events but long term I want to make it more to my personal tast I do like the styling of the car and all parts that i change I will still keep the original parts so it could be put back to original anytime I like but I need leather seats ect and the very few things I think could be improved I want to b4 bonnet ect
