    Wow, is it easy to take out the windshield (and re-using it after painting)?
    Did you do the same to the hatch glass too?

    not really, its really difficult to take windscreen out as any little tiny stone chip can crack it, you have to be really carefull..... but if it comes out ok its a doddle to put back in....

    yup didi same to tailgate and all glass....

    wil get more pics up soon...

    painted all back of doors etc etc...

    lol, sorry, i meant it will be jet black and laquered.....

    but after i have flat and polished it it will be really flat and gleaming! you will be able to see your face on the panels... hence the term used "like a mirror" :)
