We paint them & supply , we do them for £285 painted and delivered lol, we also get a discount from K-Tec for the Sprint spoilers, which we pass on..........we also do the Cup spoilers painted and delivered, with trade prices for the part.

Thanks chaps, updates to follow this evening :) not got as much done as id of liked, but its a bigger job than expected lol.

Welcome :)

Glad to you see you got it Wilson :) You know you want that big silver pipe doing gloss black or LQ yellow

Yep it will be very pressure / damp dependant, up and down......my supra that we are redoing from scratch in my project thread has the same,....it went back to the shop that did it for water blisters (much bigger ones than urs)...they redid the bits that were showing up, but it started to show...

Howdy, IMO its all got to come off, its either water in the base coat (water based), water in the primer (after wet sanding), solvents trapped in the base coat (solvent pop) or some kind of paint reaction. Either way its all go to come off.........pop a blister see if anything comes out of it.

We can beat that price by alot.......£95 +VAT, OEM quality finish.

Spray work is far to cheap for agood job......id personally stick on a used door and wing from the same car on your car.

Im going to open it to a forum vote with a few options i think............couple of colours ive got in mind are LQ yellow, Alien Green but im open to suggestions.........i definately want something that will stand out

Thanks guys, yes im hoping to go to the nth degree with it and bring it too the show this year, but time maybe be a problem. I thought this was BS, but yes all japan cars come with a flare......hes mine...... The question is........do i try it? **Also the japanese owner must of been a bit...

Hi chaps, this is our shop project for the next month or 2, its a Supra twin turbo, JSpec. I bought this car ~5 years ago as the first UK owner, before i was in the trade. I did your usual BPU (basic performance upgrade) mods to the car, so its running ~380bhp and 1.2 bar of boost, full blitz...

If its rattle can paint, just put thinners direct to to it on a cloth, will come off easy and assuming your car is 2 Pack lacquered it wont touch the lacquer, just dont go bathing the car in the stuff. Then you can buff it off afterwards if theres some wiping residue.

As above really, and keep your paint THIN!, on a side note, there are special self etching lacquers for direct to bare polished metal, but ive not used them and they are professional paints, so not a good idea to use at home.

auto paint st helens......close thread lol. auto-paint.co.uk, speak to Mark.

If you take the alloy bare metal, personally id use a high build epoxy primer......they do it in a spray can, direct to bare metal, even alloy , sticks like crap to a sheeps back side and has anti rust built in. If you dont use epoxy, you will need a metal etch primer then standard 1K primer...

We do, either in satin, matt or gloss lacquer. Make sure you prep + plastic primer them well, and then the paint wont flake.

generally not bad at all ive had mine in gloss for ages, little or no chipping 1 year on atleast. (They are a small targat i guess)

Wow thats a new one, not seen one break like that before, ill get back to your PM monday/tuesday Bradtate, as i need to confirm a used part price.

Welcome, its Nautical Blue (D48) the colour of your car mate. :)

2bh Monaco is a problem colour in our experiences.......alot of clios arent factory original, theres also the odd, friday after noon car floating around lol. I tried all IXELL shades against my own monaco clio years ago and not one was even close, also all the shades are country mile off from...

Yes we've seen this on Clio197, doesnt sound like the body shop in question are having any of it.......IMO they are at fault.

<---

Wet spray FTW, need a close up picture to see why they are so damn dull, but its probably heavy orange peal or crap in the PC. Should be an easy colour change, good sand, get them level, optional prime (as PC is a good primer really), a perky silver base coat, lacquer

Yep sure is, and 205-88 is the standard cup silver on the 172 cup turini wheels in my understanding.

If you get the any black plastics done, just make sure they smooth the texturing off, else they still wont look like an OEM finish. Id get the door handles done, and get them to use IXELL 205-110 anthracite / 205-88 silver for the bullets.

<----- If your bringing just the parts to us, we'll beat any sensible quote, assuming its to the same quality of work. Would need to see the parts to quote you.

If you got anouther BG bonnet match will be fine, assuming its a factory finish on new bonnet. If you used your current bonnet it would have to be stripped right back and totally refinished, which will be expensive.

If you want new, as in "new new" then talk to us about one painted and supplied. If your cars orig paint the match to BG to the rest will be really good, it isnt a problem colour.

Thats most likely been repaired at some point, my money would be on a paint reaction being the cause...... here would be a nice list of paint defects!.... http://pc.dupont.com/dpc/en/US/html/visitor/s/trouble/PDSG_Cracking.html Origin and Potential Causes: Excessive film thickness...
