What sort of paint have you put on the floor? or is it all underseal? just looks proper fresh and protected might take a look at doing the pink monster later on in the year before the bad cack weather gets back in again................. if it dont take too long to do that is? :laugh:

boot lid lol :sad: i hate this boot its such a arse, the paint reaction issue i had on it is sorted now, just where it was painted the last time and left in the bodyshop for ages before i picked it up, something has gone on it, and i cant get it off with polish, its just small white dots on one corner, it needs a proper buffer on it i think, its on top of the lacquer so should come off, if not then it needs re lacquring :sad:
