A week later than I should have, but I have it back now.

Really pleased with the finish, the front looks (obviously) like new.

Not a single problem, which is nice, they even took the time to sand and paint down the vertical bar behind the grill which was a bit rusty....

So Allied Vehicles get a big thuumbs up from me.

Also, if anyone is after a front S2 clam, the guy showed me a couple they had taking up space in their shop!

:thumbsup from me

Are you going to armourfend the front?

Yeah, I would definately use them again for insurance work. I think they are good as despite being a huge organisation (they fix 200+ cars a week!) they only have one guy who fixes cars made of fibreglass, and has done for ever.

Im not going to bother armourfending the front, as the front is new and the back is 4 years old there is IMHO no point - it would just end up looking even newer than the back! Plus I can think oflots of things that 200notes is better spent on!

Yeah - it's probably better (on a light silver car like yours) to just budget for a respray when you want to sell it.

Mine has about as much paint on the front as Tuts, but you don't notice it 'till you're close, as it's titanium paint and the gelcoat is light gray.
