And I won't sit down. And I won't shut up. And most of all I will not grow up.

i think the car is actually BMW startmist black. which looks like it will be a curse word of a colour to match and spray, nothing worse than metallic black! it may have to go another colour if it cant be matched. its an excuse to do a few body mods though  I'm not in a massive rush, would be nicer to get it sorted sooner than later though. if i could grab the panels fairly quickly, then i can get on with sorting the paint out and the sill trims can wait until after  |

Sorry Dez - it's been sat there a year so figured it was unlikely to have moved anywhere recently at any speed  |

It actually is a vauxhall colour - Total Vauxhall mag got that bit wrong in the article. It's actually a perfect match to the paint code that's on the VIN plate - I checked Bummer to hear you pranged it, but like Ian said, you should be sorted fairly quickly with help from ABS members on here PS - Carlton fornt doors are the same as Senator front doors, but with different side trim (mirrors are the same too) |

Ouch, glad your okay! It all seems to be fairly easily repairable, if the parts can be found.
Hows the P100 coming along?

Sierra - here we go again! He has an illness, it's not his fault.
