OK a bit more done, rear spoiler, rear bumper and rear duck-tail done, look much better but there are a couple of areas of paint damage where it looks like the bumper has been hit, there are long cracks in the paint from the NS corner to half way along the polisher has improved them though. Ducktail was a mess from things (and me) getting in and out of the boot, but looks loads better now. Just need to find the time to do the rest now...
