DodgyRog Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 (edited) Did you tell him about your deadline? You can strip, sand down, primer & paint within 4 days so tell him to get a move on & give priority to your car! It's not just a simple respray mate, there has been a lot of experimenting and basically making the bodykit up as we go. The whole of the wide arch kit has been adjusted, blended or expanded, I am happy with the work they are doing, it's just taken longer than we were all hoping. Believe me when I say Jared the bodyshop owner wants it completed asap, it's holding up other work that's waiting to come in to the shop I have to take some of the blame for the length of the build, as nearly every time I have gone down, I have tweeked and changed things I have to say they are still saying it will be ready, it's me that has the doubts and at this stage after so much attention to detail, I really dont want the spray job just being done to get me on the Dragonba11. I really want to go, but want the car right more Edited May 2, 2011 by DodgyRog (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ellis Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 You could meet up with Ian Ian and I somewhere on the M1. We may go M6 - A50 - M1 H. That would be good mate - any ideas for a meeting point and time? I can plan a route out then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 That would be good mate - any ideas for a meeting point and time? I can plan a route out then. If you see Ian's post after mine we are not going to get to Ashford early. Mike Ward is working so we are only going to get away around 18.30 from Wigan. We would probably get to Nottingham/M1 around 20.30 at the earliest. H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ellis Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Who else is travelling to Ashford on Thursday? Might be worth making a list with possible routes/arrival times. Be good to have even a small convoy at some point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I'm a Supra veteran lol...the second turbo is the best but everytime the Number two kicked in, I'd stare at the fuel gauge lol Oh and I'll be arriving EARLY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is Matt coming down with you Ellis or is it missing it now? Hi mate - Matt isn't able to come now due to his car financially ar5e-raping him so I've got an old school mate (who's a bike nut) coming along instead. We won't be getting there late either as I fancy a couple of ice cold Becks and a bit of nosh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
