Tony Posted August 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 Brilliant job, so that doesn't need to be stripped or anything? Just straighten it and back on the road? Fantastic stuff! It takes a lote of force to cold press alloy.... If i'm honest then 1 in 5 don't make it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
