I seam sealed the boot panels after they were painted. I am in two minds as to go over the seam sealer with paint or leave alone. I have the cardboard panels to fit after I clean up the wiring.

I am tryingvto fit the rear bumper but am having an issue with it. I think the bumper irons are too long. (These are new bumper irons). I have also fitted the rear boot handle.

The car was recently in for paint which is nice to see a change in multi colour to one solid colour.

Starting to install trim and windows, also got the retrimmed rear seat in. The red and stainless trim really pop as a combination.
