I got a package in the post today from a friend down in Stafford. He said he was going to send me up some chrome that would suit my coupe. What u think ??

i decided i would put the new headlamps into the general today and also put it back to the way it was when i got it. This time i got thin j tape and painted them on properly instead of using a coachline.

Looking good Raymond!, like the chrome, and the grille looks good all black for now, i`m still on the case for you but can`t find the stuff i`m looking for to do the grille slats, the stuff i want is about 4mm thick with 6mm gaps between each slat, a bit like the old Datsun style grilles they fitted on the straight six Marinas in Australia, or if i remember right the old 180b datsuns and Laurels, i know what i want but just can`t find it at the moment...i`ve even been looking at fish filters in the garden centres for you, but they are too wide :roll: , still we will get there in the end i`m sure :wink:
