Rears are done and in my car ready for the rear cage fitting, can't add a pic as my laptop's having a hissy fit and I haven't got a clue how to add pics from the Nexus ! So you'll all have to wait :-)

Front moulds in progress so be another couple of weeks, just so busy right now with Ebay motors new 1 series :-D and that is a 'thing of beauty', as for the below post resin, flat and re-lacquer is the way forward.

What did you use to take a mold ?
Did it damage the original part ?

I'd be interested to know roughly how much they're going to be, I can't see them being cheap given the labour that's obviously involved as they're taking a while?
