It’s getting done beginning of Feb so I’ll post the results then.
Will probably get the lower chrome trim resprayed at the same time as the paints 75% came off.
Need to find a ‘how to’ guide for their removal prior.

Flat blade screwdriver below the lower edge of the trim, lever outwards until you can get your fingers on the trim, then pull the trim upwards and outwards at the same time working your way along.

Cheers Trikey. I’ll probably not get the strips done this time round as I have to get other work done for the MOT.
Don’t want cost spiralling!

I had mine repaired by Kerridges (Needham Market) recently to pass the MoT. Looks a good job, but didn't include the jacking point. They are former MG-Rover dealers so know the paint colours if needed.

The chap I’ve found is Reynolds Restorations. He used to do the work for Kerridges so in safe hands
