Colour coding pictures and recommendation





just the bumper strips by the look of it.

see how you sprayed your handels, did you buy the 172 ones for spraying...cause ive been told by three seperate body shops that painting the handels aint a good idea.

sorry but that car is crying for a set of alloys.. if your budget can stretch get yourself a set of 16" even 17" if you can.

Then you car will look brill
 


i think it looks quite good. get your self a set of lexus lights, they look amazing on silver cars.

There is a car near me that looks the exact same as you, cept hes sprayed his grill silver and has lexus lights. looks mint!
 


Id say it does need new wheels as id actually say that looks too low.

Like it though, lexus lights are passe, dont bother.

they boy done a nice job colour coding your car fred.

im defo getting my spoiler and back bumper strip redone, not impressed with the colour match.

the side skirts seem ok for some reason, and the front bumper strip is being painted at renault whilst my car is fixed.

i want a new exhaust, but i want a center exit and therefore a new rear bumper:)

John, the only problem with a centre exit is that you need to have your spare wheel tray cut out + a plate welded over the LARGE hole!!!!
 


true, but either way...i dont want to get a custom exhaust system built....then it not fitting my new bumper. I really hate the standard bumper and when i have the cash i will replace it
 


Thanks for all your comments, Im in the process of buying the silver grille from Rob at the moment.

re: the spoiler, never really thought about that, hmmm will look later think if I should have done, was very wary of not over doing it and making it look sh*t.

Wheels yeah I know I need bigger ones, Was thinking some nice mk2 172 wheels, anyone got some they want to sell me????

In my personal opinion it can never be too low, and eventually when I have money for coilovers, it will go lower!!!!

lexus style lights are in consideration does anyone have a silver car with them on that I could have a picture please.

Thanks for all comments keep them coming.....



Noel

yes it s lowered 60mm

and the door handles have not been changed just orignal ones sprayed somehow, only time will tell I guess.
 


Wat have u guys done with the 16V badge on the sidestrips? u just taken them off (and left em off) when its gone in 4 colour codin ??
 


The bodyshop did that for me, not exactly sure what they did, some people say they are badges and can just be prised off and the gap filled slightly some say that its has to be planed off! not sure on that one sorry, nice and smooth now though!

As for the lexus lights, its not the best photo of them but........... http://groups.msn.com/_Secure/0TADiApgYmdl!ZSc*Jd0riY30KhBpdnHdNo17kvareB7EaPrNzNkOyg!TO0YTGce6B1VXlav8pQpBEj8COVp5y6pGPAOzheiKEL1ZvzpTNsu1ylCG9Gv5IQ/lexusside.jpg?dc=4675410184179898695">http://groups.msn.com/_Secure/0TADiApgYmdl!ZSc*Jd0riY30KhBpdnHdNo17kvareB7EaPrNzNkOyg!TO0YTGce6B1VXlav8pQpBEj8COVp5y6pGPAOzheiKEL1ZvzpTNsu1ylCG9Gv5IQ/lexusside.jpg?dc=4675410184179898695
 


The guy at the bodyshop where i went wanted to grind my 16v badge of but i said no i wanted to keep it on he said it would take ages.

He took me to his desk gave me some masking tape and said you mask the badges then. i think he was joking but nearly 2 hours later they where masked up

You can pull the 16V bit off!!!!! You just put a knife under the plastic bit and it pops off!!! 2hours masking??? Bloody Hell
