It's having one arch complete with loads of filler chopped out and a new one put in. Some other small parts of rust sorted, a little one above the windscreen and the other is on another one of the arches but this one is nothing like as bad. Also a slight realignment at the front... bonnet and lights. (It's been crashed before)

Then a full respray.

There are quite a few lads working on the motor... plus it's a heavily discounted job (friend of a friend) so I'll probably be doing the polishing when I land at JAE! :lol: fingers crossed :pray:
