Much better Id say :)

All standard apart from phil J coilies, borbet Ts, and a piper carb sock as an air filter....

I have a de-badged grill and clear indicators, but tbf i think they look shit, thought the indies would set it off nicely, but no, they looked poor! :(

C&C :)

Cheers.

Was scrubbing for a while, but I went over the rear arch edge with a file and took off the underseal that was overhanging the arch, seems to have cured the problem.

Loving it, looks so perfect now.

Looks very nice mate 8-) I like the orange indi's - keep them :)

Loving this m8 :-D

Is it me or is everybody begining to like amber indicators more than clear these days??

I know i always have and will be sticking to them :-D

Look forward to seeing this at the Oxford meet next Sunday :)

Well, I got bored yesterday, so I went and bought some storm grey paint (had to be a VW colour, couldnt have any shitty french paint on there!) and some autosol and went nuts on my wheels. Did 2 in the day (absolutly destroyed my hands) and gotta do the other 2 tomorrow since I'm was at UD today. Rocking some awsome steels on the front at the moment (did someones say staggered fitment?)

Anyway, few pics:

Few more pics of the process from today, other 2 wheels are now in primer! but everywhere is out of stock of storm grey paint! Been tempted throughout the day to spray them red since I have a tn of red paint... But cba to re-do the other two!

Nitromoors on....

Bubble, bubble crackle, laquer shits the bed....

15032010342.jpg

first liberal aplication scraped off, followed by a liberal second aplication....

15032010343.jpg

second application hosed off.... not enough power....

15032010344.jpg

Boom, out comes the pressure washed, followed by 800grit t get the stubborn stuff off, and then 1500 to finish...

15032010345.jpg

The masking is so tedious!

So these two are now sat in primer while i hunt down some paint. Then they can go back on, hopefully will get my arches rolled pretty soon and can get some tuck at the back, since they currently rub a fair bit...
