See whoever painted this...don't get them to fix your wing ;)
Though going by the back end of @Enoch 's it'll look cracking when on.
Don't know why but I always think that 350 rear end looks rubbish til I see it fitted...
Same guy, thankfully he didn't draw that lol, that's my poor painting.

I'm the same, thought it was weird, but everytime I saw macs, I just wanted one more and more :lol:!

She's now been dropped off at my mates bodyshop.

The surgery will go as follows:

Sand down paint from surrounding areas
Spray anti rust into the cavity, just to make sure (panel appears to be aluminium)
Pull the dent out
stitch weld the hold back together then sand that down
remould the arch lines if needs with filler
Paint her up.

Should be done by end of tomorrow, also dropping the diffuser with him tomorrow when Mac drops it off with me :D!

Thought you might leave it until after Goodwood; get all the damage fixed at once. :bolt:

I don't track fast enough for it to travel into anything that could cause harm ;)

What about things traveling into YOU? Or will you have the track all to yourself? ;)

Should also pick my 'stang back up, saw it earlier, it'd been welded closed and they were just doing some body filler to realign the body lines. :)
