[QUOTE="gvee, post: 473056, member: 14750"] Off to see the specialist on Monday, slightly less optimistic than I was a week ago :lol: Last night the filler was sanded down, the surface keyed and primer followed by topcoat laid down. My painting skills (read: patience) isn't amazing, plus I was doing this all outside, in the cold and wind. Built up the quarter light after polishing the glass. Was so worried about cutting the seals too short it must have taken me 45 mins of on-off-trim-on-off-trim-on-off-trim :lol: But I'm pleased with the result. Decided against painting the aluminium on the quarter light, hopefully I won't regret that once it is in! I'm hoping that tonight I have enough time for a light sand of the door followed by red-oxide before beginning the arduous task of rebuilding the door. It's going to be a long night! The plan is to go pick up the bus from Graham tomorrow :mrgreen: I won't go in to any detail at this stage but "Beamgate" was (and still is) a real thing! Needless to say I'm a little fed up with the front suspension at the moment. Not because of MEB, they've been great - but because of the supplier. Back on all fours...
