Your negativity is giving me the ambition to succeed and make the car look good. Although I don't think I'll ever get the bits back worlds slowest painter has them, having to roll round in the work courtesy car lol.

Fogs are overrated. I always thought it looked better with them looking like large vents instead.

It's only purpose in life now is to fill a hole in the garage and stop the missus piling it full of baby toys and boxes of crap, still deciding what to do with it, either gonna get s resto or sold as it is.

Time to buy a new car
Vxr is in the corner of my garage collecting dust the guy painting my bumpers has vanished off the face of the earth, "I'll have them done Friday mate" Friday comes "Monday mate" Monday comes "Tuesday mate" Tuesday comes his unit is closed up all day won't answer his mobile and the same today's fortunately he does this a lot and works when he feels like it so I'm not massively worried just pissed off.

Which is why I hate stuff done on the side, rather pay more and have some proper service. I know doesn't bother lot of people, br can't stand being fucked about and timewasters

Iv got other cars so it's not reallyyyyyy an issue I just miss driving it and am sick of looking at it in bits, if I was told 2 weeks from the start I wouldn't even mind, to be fair it's costing me about £20 in mot slots and he's done a front bumper a wing a front splitter rear splitter pair of side skirts on other cars and my splitter and rear bumper I was getting quotes of near £400 to do just the vxr bits. When he's back in work tommorow I'm hoping he's getting s rocket up his arse.

I could not be dealing with that i'd go ape shit.
Fair enough it's different if he's doing it for a favour, but I just don't like being told a deadline and it isn't met. I'm quite routine with stuff like that. Probably due to my line of work.

I'm like you Ben, what pisses me off is he gives me a date so the days building upto that day I run around like a mad man boxing jobs off in my my place to give me a spare ramp and time for me to build it back up then it doesn't happen, so I'm rushing round for no reason. If there not done by Friday then I'll start getting a bit nasty I think.
