    Is that a pearl wrap?
    You've done a very good job on that if it's your first attempt.

    Funny isn't it! I noticed the sun shining off the curves of your car, the huge dished rims & an eagle eye sees a flipped tyre.
    Funny as.

    Update time. The car had some more electrical issues.
    I believe water had gotten into the electrics basically.

    Anyway not going to write a long post about it as it's a part of my life I'll never get back but the plus side is it's road tested ok so hopefully on the up!

    did drift matsuri last week, i was booked onto the infield. it was wet. it was fast. it was fun.

    I put a short video together of my first 3 laps... as we're currently editing our full matsuri vlog so that will be going online later, enjoy watching my hands flap as i've not drifted in over 4 years haha.

    So*the wraps off and it's back to looking like shit in 4 different colours again.

    Decided it's time to*sort some issues I have with the car and get it back to its former glory.

    I will never wrap a car again, the effort to wrap the car alone brought on severe emotional trauma.
    And it was just as bad to remove!!!

    So we're currently prepping for paint

    (Yay I get to annoy everyone and do another colour reveal again )

    We've decided to also sort the shambles of an attempt at the rear tubs being done. They had been cut folded, riveted closed and then caked in silicone or sealant of some sort.

    We've removed the silicone. Drilled the rivets out. Folded the metal back out and prepped to weld. Folded back up to make contact and Welded the flaps up. It looks 1000% better and I know now it has been done properly so can be painted underneath the over fenders.

    The whole car is being sanded and prepped for*paint and any small imperfections in the body sorted.

    We're expecting to be painted within the next 3 weeks. I still need the front wheel straightening too.

    I've picked up a new front bumper for the refresh because there was only about 70% of the old one left.

    The rear is repairable so that's on the list of jobs to sort too.

    This is the only picture currently but we have a video underway which will detail everything*
