Sounds amazing, Cant wait to see it finished
Sorted through all wiring apart from Heater now everything else is working very well, Was really pleased that gearbox is better than my red 90. Made exhaust brackets today and took off back door for paint.
Hopefully all the plastics will be primed tomorrow ! I can see the light at the end of the Tunnel

What paint did you use for the front light surrounds? Guessing normal metal paint wouldn't take? Unless that's what used
All black now painted

Did you need to use a plastic primer on the light surrounds before spraying with the two pack paint?
I don't really understand the new two part/pack paint system.

You would need to spray them with an adhesion promoter/plastic primer or the likelihood of the paint peeling off is very high.
2 pack isn't really new, it's been around for years. Basically it's a 2 part system that you hardness with an isocyanide based hardener (that's the dangerous bit). It cures to a very hard finish. It will stick to basically all substrates if appropriate prep and priming has been done.

Alex do you go on the other forum about defenders ? White transit van seen casing a 90 at Beeston has a white ball on the aerial
