Coming on nicely mate.

If you don't mind me asking what was the cost of the Engine and fuse-board cover also where did you get the new Vauxhall sticker?

Merry Christmas Rusty.

The hydro-dipping for the engine cover cost me £100 while the fuse box cover was just £30. It was done by a local company so the price may vary. The 'sticker' is actually the original factory insignia, it was covered prior to hydro dipping so not effected by the process.
Hope that helps mate?
