Old snotter looking reasonable Byron…. :P :wink:

Just gotta hope that knackered old chassis can cope with the shove…. :evil:

its crazy how capable this car feels...... for example i had my order in on a GR yaris ( im in no way trying to compare these btw) but from all the reviews and hype i expected it to feel awesome, in comparison to the z4, it just felt so .... mehhhh.... chassis , steering, engine, feel, everything.... ( apart from the brakes) . The z4 just feels so so so special in this state of tune. amazing platform.

Yeah I cancelled it after I got to drive it..... My order was placed at at time I wasn't allowed to drive due to covid. With all the glowing reviews that still continue I often wonder if I just didn't have enough time with the car but it just didn't feel as fantastic and I expected. In fact my old fiesta ST felt is one of my all time fave hot hatches .

I can't lie as mentioned before I often wonder if I've done the right thing and just needed longer with it.
 
Off we go again ..... 5 weeks after major surgery ...m my first few days back in , this made me the happiest I've been in a good while. I love my job so much , felt amazing to be back....

Starting with a Tesla model X Black to Nardo grey... Done by myself a yearback in for numerous panels to be replaced due to vandel attack.

Porsche Cayman currently undergoing major paintwork resto and Gtechniq coatings.

This owner loves her tigra ... She's owned it from new and simply refuses to let it go. She booked it in and ordered the most expensive material available to order.

A big strip down as I always aim for paint like finish and wrap behind and under panels where possible . Full vlog coming soon.

Here's some detail shots on the work. Half then car complete today on the first day.

Byron, fantastic job and I see the 'apprentice' is learning every day. Keep up the good work. Will chemo continue for a long time?
 
Thanks B,

i try to get her in the shop once a week to keep up on her developing wrap / PPF skills... shes able to wrap complete panels ( simple an flat mostly) but is now developing an eye for the more tricky stuff. We really enjoying working together occasionally. Hope you enjoyed the rather long winded video!
 
Thanks B, i was definitely spoiled!

i feel a little better now...... very bad week! lol... 3 more chemos to go.... holding on by my finger tips.

BACK at work today ! Refuse to give up! subsequently i actually filmed a week of chemo.... its grim viewing... but im going to post it up soon.

Good to hear you're feeling better.

i am taking it easy :-P lol...... this amount of workload is taking it easy :rofl: Next year will hopefully see me back to the manic workload :thumbsup: i will however be taking most of december off plus ive just booked another holiday for mid dec.

i see we have many new S/C cars coming to the fold which i'm really pleased to see. i cant lie however i would have liked to see more stump for the ESS kits are i feel they are just superior being the only A/A intercooled setup,throw in the large VT blower and its just a winner, however the price point is just plain off-putting i get that.

currently working on a supercharged Jag EX, lovely car... will post some pics in a few days
 
right guys....

finished Jag is here

2 stage correction
Gtechniq ultra BLACK ( my top tier ceramic)
tinted rear lights

so so so pleased with this job , check out my insta for little clips of the before and after. HUGE turn around!

Bmw z4 stuff is happening at the shop.

Random mess around for no apparent reason.

Customer at work asked me to tint his rear lights on his new Jag ex supercharged while it's in for his main jobs. ( Very tasty vehicle btw ) I don't use normal tint , I use actual PPF that's tinted. Got me thinking about the front lights of our cars , PPF is extremely hard wearing so this will protect the headlight plus with the light tint ... I think it could look good and add some visual enhancement. So... Today I scanned the headlights and machine cut some pieces so they are inch perfect . I can't wait to fit them and see what they look like.

this is a light smoke tint or i can do some nice high end PPF clear film . Firs pic is off the jag i tinted , with a light tint in natural light, i think this is going to look EPIC on the Z and give some nice aggression. This should be easy installable for the end user as these are proper scanned and machine pieces on my industrial graphtec cutters.

these will protect the headlight and stop degradation from UV etc.... if anyone wants a set ill add them to my shop and make them available however these we actually just for myself.
