Thought I'd better update this.
Been a busy few days on the car.
Firstly considering I'm a computer nerd for a living and I'm doing this in my garage at home with a £100 compressor I'm gobsmacked it's turned out as good as it has.

I did start by flatting and polishing after 24 hours but ended up having to redo a few panels as I'd gone too far with the polisher.
So I thought I'd let the paint harden for a few weeks before I have another go
All the pictures are of the panels straight after the paint has gone on them. No flatting or polishing has taken place yet other than on the roof.
I'll let the pictures do the talking but to say I'm stoked is an understatement.

No more progress on the paint side of things until my paint supplier re-opens as I don't have enough paint for the two bumpers and the rear wing
