Unfortunately the photos of the whole of my car came out rubbish in the dark so i'll try to get some tomorrow, todays work:
finished strut brace so both front and rear are done now:

re-done back section of the exhaust so that tailpipe faces diagonally upwards and outwards instead of the way it faced in before;

personally, I like the black around the window tops . I have been thinking of doing this when I sort out the rust in my back door, (easier than trying to match the original colour )
