im just trying to do it on the cheap aswell. i can get grey primer and laquer cheap as chips but dark grey is alot more than standard silver alloy paint, i think im gonna go n have a look at some carplan color match n see if they do a tin similar(i can get 400ml color match for about 4 quid a tin so hopefully)

As long you prep them right and take your time rattle can wheel refurbs can look ok. As long as you get them all mixed at the same place same time it should be ok.

I have just bought a bottle of wax. so when that gets here i will crack on with it the paint work is very rough so it will take some doing.
the parts i need are not urgent the car drives fine. bottom of radiator snapped off evocarlos found that when he done my chain. I just never got round to fixing it because the car still works lol that was almost a year ago now if not a year.

I like those twin tops! Seen them on a few astra coupes and verts...

Not much really to list on mine apart from tidy up the engine bay, get wheels refurbed, source another bonnet & bumpers and side strips... I was going to buy the ones from Torque Motors wrapped in carbon but he has not replied with images of the underside of them, been a week now...

If i get my supercharger and the head work brought and done, Ill have to fit that before....

Im am questioning whether to do it or not as I am thinking of a new car in october and making this one my track car.

I'm not 100% sure! but if you like it that's all that counts, also if you are doing it yourself I would only get proper 3M Di-Noc stuff.

Dave_Gilbert

i think it should look nice if its applied right.

Dave_Gilbert
