They are going to come from everywhere !

The restorations over the next 12 moths are going to be really interesting. The "bar" is going to be be set very high..

Thanks for coming on board, Gavin - this kind of work is a mystery to me (clearcoating and touch ups etc).. so I will be using your services shortly..

Yeh, basically if you send me pics of the BG front and back, ill be able to get a good idea of IF its restorable etc.

Im located in brisbane, but have a courier service that will pick up and deliver door to door. So long as BG is securely packaged there should be no problem.

Ill be posting a thread soon showing a FLASH BG restore
