^ The later models corrode quicker!

Well car is back from a full respray and although I had trouble in justifying the cost of new strips, I am glad that I bit the bullet and replaced them. Putting bubbly and corroded strips back on would have let the car down, I managed to bet them for a bargain price of £32 each + the vodka.

Usually I'd insert a "happy" smiley here but "tolerant/accepting" would be better suited...

Thanks Pete

before it was a 2003 TD6 vogue, I bought a 2006 S/C front end from Googsy but after fitting 2010 rear lights I kind of went a bit OTT and changed my ideas, I'd planned to fit the front end and sell the car but now it's a keeper

Lovely, is that a colour change?? Pete

Colour is the original Bonatti grey, I went to visit the car before the clear coat was applied and almost signed up for a matte finish but in the end I walked away with what you see in the pic

I do like the grille
