It was on one of those one-day-deal t-shirt websites (Perhaps Teefury?).
And my profile picture isn't actually my DeLorean! Taken the year before I got mine. Though that is me in the Doctor Who get-up, being a massive nerd and all

No way I could stick at 88 posts, I drive my DeLorean too often and things break on it so I need to keep posting :lol: Upgraded my profile picture to one with my car, but still with that geek quality to it!

I have that t-shirt. I want the one with a DeLorean crashing into a Tardis.

I think I've seen that on eBay. I like the photo Simon has recently posted on his Facebook page where Doc is pushing Marty out of the way of the tardis rather than the time machine

The winter project continues!
This time, the lower sections of the bumpers which have needed doing for a while now since having the upper sections done in the Alfa silver (cheers Wardy)

Firstly, some 180 then 400s across the whole bumper, and filling some deep scratches.

Mask her up!

I then sprayed the bumper with texture paint to give it that nice mottled bumper effect, as it was way too smooth. FInished off with a few coats of u-pol bumper spray.

Ta daaaa!

A close up of the texture spray as a base coat.

What's an update thread without a DeLorean logo
For the eagle eyed *cough, Mike* yes I will be spraying the little section below the bumper in silver! That's for another day when I can be bothered mixing the 651A again

Cheers Claire! My front one has slight eyebrows again even after flattening. It MUST be the headlight heat as I haven't been out in warm since I fixed it. I'll do some support bars when I can be bothered ;-)

Also has a GTA themed one, which I'm tempted to get myself for obvious reasons...
