A few more shots

Anybody guess that this car is a Cat C write off? It was rear end damage...

I'm chuffed with the smooth look of the tailgate, needs a Black 'Bananza' sticker in the same style as the Glanza one I think :D

And how it'll look with the bumper when I've got it sorted

I think the passengers rear lense lets it down because of the reverse light (NA style!) I'll be changing that soon though all being well :)

Very well done mate amazing job for your age!

V. Impressive. I used to have a Black Starlet SR. V Nice to drive. Agreed with above go for the clear indicators, I wished I could have had them, they only came on the horrible 5 door versions with Chromed Door Handles. Now in a Mk5 Polo Gti. Looking forward to seeing the finished article :D

A knock on the door woke me up this morning.... And looked whats arrived!!

Genuine Toyota too, thats nearly about it for the rear end!

I have to admit, I am a little lost for works. I'd love to see a high details close up photo of your paint job once finished just to see how well you've done it.

Looking the shizzle by the way 8-)

Fantastic, I look forward to it. I hate you for being so talented by the way :lol: Explain why you don't need to lacqure it btw? I know you say there is lacquer in the paint but I don't totally get it :(

  • Author

Lol thanks. Its a 2K Solid Gloss paint, theres just no lacquer needed! Its what the 'paint man' told me and hes been in the business for about 30 years!

Got the spoiler brake light wired up and the Glanza reverse lights.. I did try to keep the wiring neat!!

And I couldn't help but take a better picture of how the lip is going to look!!

Completed the bumpers repair today and gave the lip a coat of paint. Hoping to get that fitted tomorrow and will show pics :)

Tiny update

Got the mirrors all prepped and plastic primed, couldn't be arsed to mix such a small amount of paint so I'm gonna paint them with the bumper.

And got the lip fitted to the bumper, all ready to paint. The lip sits about 3mm too low on one side though so I need to rip off all the sealant and get it perfect B)

Quality mate, keep us updated.
