The enjoyment is the same, just the ways in which it's achieved are different =) I do missi having perfect paint though... I'll fix it evenually as I'm sure the dodgy touch ups will eventually be too much for me...

Spotted Stu on Glenferrie rd this morning =)

Is yours peeling off Ben? Mine started from various stone chips about a year ago and now whole sections of paint are missing. Thinking of teaching myself how to spray paint.

Similar thing... Started with stone chips, I did an okay job of touching them up so it didn't look too bad... But then drove through some flood water in Tasmania and that ripped up far too much paint to touch up properly. Since then it has just been an ongoing thing. The white paint on our cars is terrible as far as flaking like this... I did a quick spray job just so no primer is showing and it doesn't look too bad... Will have take the effected panels off and have a proper go eventually.

Spotted on Main Rd Lower Plenty this morning heading towards Rosanna. Very nice white NC with black soft top. IZAMX 5 with MX5 Club rego plate surrounds. I might see it again at a non Sunday morning club run some time, and be able to look closer at the very interesting looking wheels.

Spotted XITAN in the carpark at Craizieburn yesterday. Hey Randy, you didn't wave (just because I was in the Verada). :lol:

I'll even forgive the fact that you had the roof up seeing that it was pouring rain. :mrgreen:
