looking really good Daz, where did you get the rear spatz from been after a set for ages?

A guy local to me was breaking a coupe, he damaged the one removing it so got them pretty cheap(£50) which is a bargain, they do pop up quite a bit for sale but they do fetch strong money (£80-£100)..there just shy of 200 new


cheers for the comments aswell guys

Left the black dry overnight, then flatted it back this morning, then gave it 4 coats of clear.... left it to dry until around 5 , (hot the garage toasty) then set about it with some 2000 grit wet and dry(was a few dusty marks and some insects decided they like the paint)
After the wet and dry, i got the polisher out, spent around 2hrs getting it back up to a gloss finish, it aint perfect , but it will do....

That's a bloody good finish for rattle cans Daz. Did you not fancy a wrap first just in case you didn't like it??

Was goin to get it wrapped, however trying to pin someone down to do it round this way, seems an impossible task...

Bloke at work has had this Clio RS200 done a few months back, as there is a place about 5 minutes from my work that does it, and it looks really good.

I gave it to aly when she sold her coupe, she done less than 100miles in it, a mate of mine offered me some dollar for it back last year, so she said she's keep it for abit whilst he sorted the cash, and he came over in the week with said cash, so it drove of into the sunset tonight, but i'll be seeing it on a regular basis as he's local and wants me to look after it for him..
