Cheers mate, the colour I used is Rover Gunmetal available from Halfords. Then just did several layers of clear lacquer ontop.

Wondered about the door handles, colourcode or antracite them...hmmm...

 

[Has]

cool !

Look a bit like mine, match my wheels

 

[Da]

looks good Has. I opted for masking off the '16v' bit so it matched the renault emblem in centre of the wheels

 

[MattT]

Might do the same to mine - but my whole car including the wheels is anthracite...so might be a bit much.
Looks good tho - nice match with the wheels!

 

[Dan Page]

that looks proper bo i tell thee
nice one daz!

 

[Da]

Cheers Dan, I'm pleased with the outcome :approve:

 

[Rich_16v]

Looks very professional, the 16v stands out nicely

I'd colour code the handles though

Whats next? CC the bumpers?

 

[Da]

yep probably Rich once I've saved up I'm gonna CC the whole car, handles, bumpers, everything.

 

[RSi Dave]

Definately looks good, I like the idea of colour matching the lettering with the Centre Caps, personally i would have black writing tho to make it stand out a bit.

I bought the black paint to do just that mate! I just thought I'd see what they looked like as they are. Undecided as yet, they may change who knows! lol!

 

[RSi Dave]

Saying that, looking at the first pictures again they hardly blend in do they. So actually keep them as they are

 

[Blue4Ever]

Is it just me that can't see Dazza's pictures?

[Da]

cheers for the comments guys, the 16v is staying silver for now :approve:

[JEFF4507]

Anyone want to give me their 16v badges in exchange for some DCi ones... The Blue I ones :rasp:
