My 172

[capturedbyjames]

Afternoon all,

I've had a busy week, been painting calipers, making custom badges, painting strut braces and the engine... Haven't got pics of the engine bay at the moment, but it's very, very yellow.

This is the beast so far!

What d'ya think?

I like the front but the yellow colour is a bit disturbing and the black wheels don't seem to stand out Still, very nice.

 

[capturedbyjames]

I need a proper sunny day for the wheels to stand out. There shiney black, and where i took the photos didn't have the best light...

 

[seb]

looks really nice mate. good work!

i liek the subtle mods :approve:

 

[Middo]

nice pics, nice to see a ph1 with its orginal rear end, most have ph2 rears nowadays

 

[Leeph1]

love this car, looks stunning in the flesh

 

[patty]

awesome!

 

[capturedbyjames]

ph2 rears are heavier... lol

needs a good claying and a PC job though.. maybe when i have more time!

 

[Ali]

I like the badgeless bonnet.

 

[Jamie]

Imo, it looks spot on, i like the wheels, the badges and the caliper, however the bonnet looks a little plain to me. good going.

 

[dandan]

The drivers door looks a bit darker than the back quater, is it just how it's parked?

[Pep]

wheres the pics??

[S22 JGS]

yellow cals look very good behind the dark turinis. not sure on the side badges though - but at least they are something different from the usual CS trends of 2 colours (base and lettering)

In Fleet/Church Crookham now... Haven't got round to changing that yet!

[DebV6]

Looks nice

 

[Englebert]

Looks cool... badges spoil it though. Don't get this new fad of painting the side badges playschool colours.

[capturedbyjames]

i like it, though i'd probably stick on a ph2 bumper

But everyone does that... Keeping this one as it is!

Most of the work is down to superfastdan - he was the previous owner! All i've done is the yellow bits!

 

[Serg]

all looks good james. Il have to take a peak at the engine at some point.

 

[capturedbyjames]

Thanks Bradley! See you soon!!!!!

 

[hydeyho]

Not sure about the side badges, but at least it's something different, love everything else though!
