Getting close now. I’ve just ordered new carpets from lakewell IMG_2412.jpg IMG_2414.jpg

Looking great!
Make sure you check your carpet as soon as you receive, compare it to original pieces.
Their (Lakewell) customer service was crap when I had an issue at time of fitting.Had purchased off them a few times before. They sent wrong front mats in the carpet kit for my 73e, will never use them ever again after their ridiculous offer to remedy their mistakes.

Ok thanks for the tip.

How did you get into panel and paint so quickly?? Are you DIY? Looks like you ended up doing the wheel arch for some reason too?

I was lucky with timing, not DIY.
Sills had been re skinned at some stage, and we’re toast. Kidney bowls were shot, so lower rear guard had to come off for access. Front lower guards were rusted out and bogged up.

Looks awesome. Will you PPF when finished?

Hello Doug
By PPF do you mean a car wrap? I’m not that familiar with it.
Have you had some experience?

Hi Dean,
Yes, I meant paint protection film. You can’t put it on fresh paint until the paint has had a good amount of time to cure fully, but it does add some protection to paint from small stone chips and scratches. Once applied it’s not really visible unless you are looking for it. Depends on whether your potential driving habits exposes you to possible stone chips , of course.
