Hi mate yeah I did.
Just at a local place in Hull where I live. A bodyshop supplies place.
Its actually Mondial blue, the exterior colour. But should give more or less the same finish as the interior hopefully
They'll be getting refurbed soon.
I'm probably gonna keep em silver (Hyper Silver or Sparkle silver or whatever it is thats bright and shiny lol)...
but I also like the look of satin black and even anthracite
Hmm choices
I'll be painting some new thumbgrips, made from fibreglass. Not much really but should make a nice difference.
The plastic underneath the gearstick sounds good. Get it done and see what its like :)
Thanks for all the nice replies guys,
Got a Ktec panel filter fitted the other night, does feel slightly better picking up actually.
Got some sportlines on the way (delivered tomorrow hopefully) and some new thumbgrips :)...bit of spraying this weekend and they'll look cool
Next on the list...
Cool yeah was hoping to keep the matt finish. May need some laquer on it to protect it though from peeling in the future?
Think I'm gonna go try get it paint matched tomorrow.
Dont worry not doing anything stupid to the interior lol
I'm going to be spraying some small bits for the interior of my 172 cup and I want to match them to the blue bits of the interior, ie the dash strips, clock surrounds and the bottom spoke of the steering wheel....
Has anyone managed to find a good paint match?
Obviously I need a blue, I think...
Few shots taken over a couple of weeks, still getting used to the SLR.
Few additions to the car in the next few weeks too, expect some more pics to come..
Hope you like them
..and my favourite :)
Most days on the way home from work I'll rev it, not massively though, but past 5k cos it makes me smile.
Can it do long term damage?
I mean if its serviced properley and warmed up enough, surely its built for it?
If its anyone on here I know you saw me lol.
Nice clean looking cup.
We followed each other for a while down the dual carriageway.
Rarity to see two blue cups together, other than a meet of course ;)
