sammy you must have a good paying job or you really like it, my missus only has to go 25k's each way to work @ 10L per 100 and it's only just worth it

if she didn't like the job so much we'de both be on the rok'n'roll

where's more pics matty wasn't it supposed to be finished end of last month, are you haveing trouble getting rubbers

i only bought the ones i needed screen, tailgate window and cargo area glass, got them 2 days after i ordered them from bill thompson auto rubber

hey matty my rubbers took a couple months from rares,,,,and look for the instructions on outer door seals as they only had one page and not with every seal but in the last bag i opened and then i learnt that the first three were wrong

Oh I don't know that could look good. Maybe photoshop a wagon to look similar. Otherwise you might be waiting a while, he'll have holes to fill and 2 gaurds and doors to paint! But if you are not happy make him do it right.

Unfortunately this is why I did alot myself, at least if it stuffs up or goes wrong I could only blame myself.....

Either way it looks great.
