Who the hell were this bodyshop????
Not only have they done a pony job of spraying it, but they've ruined some wiring too? How did they manage this?
Can you get some HD pics of the body work???
Someone like Gally should be able to comment on whether it's acceptable or fixable??

Looks epic. Getting there now.
There is a guy who has one in Dumbarton (just outside Glasgow) which I pass everyday on my way to work.
He's just primered it in his driveway, for at least the second time, as the paintwork was terrible, I could even tell just by driving by.
It rained shortly after he had done this and there is patches of black showing through the primer again already..
Oh, and where did you get the EDF energy guy/thing? I want to get one for the mother.. She has this strange liking to him/it..

eBay mate. Just over a tenner!

Bit of a come down from the posh truck and clunge mechanic he had in the show,
but he looks happy in there with all the half used tins of paint.
Would you ever consider a re-spray far in the future to convert it into KARR?
I bet you'd have the only one in the country.
Although I don't remember it being half white, I thought it was exactly the same as KITT?
but he looks happy in there with all the half used tins of paint.

It was two tone grey/black - and looked shat.
I wonder if the OP is going to re-create portable KITT in the ghetto blaster when the body was being repaired? or even add the super pursuit bodykit from season 3?
Super Pursuit mode was sh*t I never liked it,
iirc it was only introduced due to poor ratings in an attempt to revamp the show.
I don't remember the ghetto blaster KITT. lol

Been machined polished? Still look a little dull, certainly not deep, but that could be your camera skills... :rasp:
Get those wheels/tyres done and the outside will look lovely!
