    Thanks to everyone for all your very kind words about our cars. You're all tooo nice.

    Wul, I updated our sig image before you posted your message.... is it not, well, did it not go, does it look, not like the old one was used to.... Are the wheel arches painted on the MINI in the sig pic?

    Linsey, you're gonna love it. But.... <coughshouldhavegonetomenziescough>

    Big Col, actually the MINI was pepper white and the X5 was silver. We had to paint them both to match the garage door colour. If we'd thought of it earlier, it would have been cheaper to paint the garage door, but we can't all have the gift of foresight.

    Sometimes I type these things and I'm not sure my humour comes through very well. Never mind, I'm sure you get the gist of my answer.

    Good for you Lynsey. Isn't it an amazing transformation?

    Hey AndyP&lenore. Do you have any problems with stone chips at the back arch, taken the paint off? My car is really rough on the plastic even tho I have front mud flaps. Id like to get them colour coded do you think it suits a black car?? Plus I have back mud flaps should I get them painted or take them off? Thanks Andrew
