Side panels
Part of my plan had been to do the rewire so tidyly that I didn't need the side panels. I've got a really small battery and a minature regulator but even so I can't see how to accomplaish this.
Therefore I've stripped and repainted the sidepanels. I learnt from the mudguard experience and finished the stripping with wet & dry to get rid of the scratches. Over a week I applied a white primer in 1 and a bit coats and 2 and a bit coats of white.
After 2 days to dry I managed to get rid of the few 'orange peel' zones with rubbing compound. Now they are polished they look pretty good.
