At least paint the front door, that blue colour is horrible.

Started the rear guard chop and the nibbler I borrowed from work broke 20 seconds into the job. So I got out the jigsaw and put a metal blade in it - seems the blades I got arent compatible with my jigsaw (they fall out when under pressure). I decided not to use the cutting disk in the grinder (too messy and the fuel tank is right there) so out with the hand shears. Slow and anoying but one side is done. Just got to get some under body sealer to waterproof everything and also as set of curved shears (make the curved cuts a little easier) before I do the last one.

Will do a spare set of front guards while I am at it and tuck them away for later on (when these ones are trashed). I intend to do a short "how to" thread when I am finished and got all the pics sorted for anyone else wanting to do something similar.
