A few new pics of my Cup (with the 'new' mod...)

[Mish]

Not sure if I ever put pictures up of the painted black grilles/splitter in here. (I know I did in my project thread!)

Anyway- people were wanting to know if they stonechipped etc. 1200ish miles and still good as new- so all is good! Just took a few new pictures today after a wash

Rear bumper strip is done matey- I contemplated the mirror surrounds, but just not sure if it would start looking ott and if you I'd ever stop then lol....

 

[Guppy]

Ah coolio

Couldnt see on the laptop

Is it much work to do? Prep work like?

 

[swirly182]

Nice. Think i've spotted you a couple of times around Blackpool area, looks even better on the road.

Not really- depends what you class as alot of work.

Any paint surface needs sanding/keyring, washing, drying primering, painting then laquering but it's all worth it

Swirly- have you? Give me a flash/beep next time. I'm usually knocking around Poulton/Fleetwood way and work in Preston

Pretty much pornography.

How are you in the N/W and i've never seen it in the metal.

I move in a stealth like manner lol....

I'm not sure- as I do alot of miles here there and everywhere! I've never seen you either

 

[Paul.]

my fave cup as i said in your thread

 

[Christopher]

I don't normally stick my neck out like this... but i'd go as far as to say yours is my favourite Cup.

If you had Pole Positions, it'd be perfect!

 

[rctempire]

Excellent pics.

 

[LFCJosh]

dosent flex like.
i wanted to my splitter but been told the paint will just crack.

 

[YorkshireDaz]

Yeah but I was on the bike both times Mate always says he sees a mint 172 Cup on the A583 (?) aswell - which must be yours.

IS it hard to get the plastics out? I want to paint mine as they are looking dull as f**k so any advice would be grand

Oh I finally managed success with fluorescent paint! Took ages but got there

 

[Leeshez]

Back to black and you will be fine mate.


Nice looking cup

 

[VeinAST]

Love it! What exhaust is that?

 

[Guppy]

In love with the 3rd pic down!

Love this cup! What a modded cup should look like

Lol Richy- it's hard paint to work with eh!

Back to black can be used... but I really would advise painting them. I washed the car today, can wash the plastics the same and good as new. You imagine trying to put back to black on the front grilles.... It would take forever to get perfect imo

It's not a hard job, but best as a bumper-off job for easyness. Only bolt on bolt-off job

Only got one today, not great but you get the idea.....

 

[m4rkie23]

the car looks fantastic mate! very nice touches!

 

[Darren S]

At first glance, I thought the first pic had mudflaps fitted to the rear . Then I saw that it was just part of the shed in the background. Boo.

Looking superb though!

I went back to scratch and prep'd fully... looks okay now! (haven't put it on the car though yet)

I tried back to black last week.... this week the f**king thing is grey again

Just normal matt black paint and no lacquer?
