I spent a bit of time last night refitting headlamps and my new smoked indicator lenses took a couple of pics of the newly repaired shiney clam.

I like the no front plate look, hopefully will refit the clam to the car on saturday.

Start where the old panels meet the new clam, so, if like me, you loose interest half way through polishing, at least the new panels will match the old. Graduated stylee :wink:

The reason for the mishap....

To do the repair above cost £250, I removed the clam and the lad collected it, I did need to pick it up after the repair but for £250 I wasn't caring :D
