some crap quality, unforgiving sneeky peaky pics. These are laquered but unpolished/waxed. really happy with the quality of the finish and the colour, looks spot on if u complain, i'm keeping your super resin The colours are candy red (bloody expensive and a shite to use but worth it) and ford panther black (black with a strong silver flake)

 

[MattT]

Looks good middo!
How much do you charge for this stuff? You've got a right little CS 'spin-off' business goin on!

 

[Middo]

lmfao^ shhhh the tax inspectors will be coming after me! To be honest i dont really make any money on doing these, what ever the cost of paint is really. 1.2s are done for a discount price though

 

[MattT]

Haha - nice one. I'm waiting for you to offer to do my little carbon project
lol

 

[Middo]

little trickier now that ive sold my bumpstrips lol

 

[makavelli]

looking goooooood dude
hope i can get me mitts on it 2moz

 

[MattT]

Yeah I figured they'd get snapped up - my fault tho, head like a sieve!
Haven't sourced the carbon yet either.
Finger. Arsehole. Out of.

 

[bunzee]

That looks sweet

What polish / wax will you be using on the new paint?

 

[Middo]

depends really. on this paint its near perfect almost all over. so i shall probably just use some super resin (hey andy ) a sealant and then some p21. which seems to do a good job. otherwise i sometimes have to resort to using scratch x / paint renovator / megs polish depending on what the paints like.

 

[Giles]

very nice

 

[Adam]

the engine cover is a t**t to spray aint it

 

[GarethM]

[Martin_172]

middo what sort of stuff could you do to a 1.2 16v engine cover? any pics of stuff you've already done?

 

[Christopher]

[Bubbles]

1.2s are done for a discount price though

Wow really? i have a 1.2!

 

[dannyboy172]

Looking good Mark! :approve:

 

[Dan Page]

How much to do mine racing blue middo?

 

[Middo]

Wow really? i have a 1.2!

oh good, you'll let me have a drive then

i'll pm u dan, take a look at dannyboys if you want to see the sort of colour the racing blue comes out like,or you want ideas for a joint colour etc etc

on a 1.2 i can only really do one colour all over as theres no sections you can mask off. This is mine, its candy red with a red flip coat over the top, however i doubt i could ever recreate the colour lol.

 

[dannyboy172]

Racing blue and Andromeda.

 

[MattT]

Looks good that Middo - nice bit of carbon in there too.
I haven't developed a carbon fetish...honest

 

[Middo]

lmao any excuse eh danny .

That colour combination looked the nuts, the andromeda really went with it.

Matt T - your like me, i'd do anything for a bit of carbon! Get that project sorted . Seriously though matey, if you want anyhelp with it give us a pm. My bumpstrips would have been perfect for you as well as they're smoothed all over, but hey n/m :rasp:

 

[Batman]

its good to see all these different ideas coming out now on the phase 2 172 people are starting to create there own ideas and stuff its really cool being able to look at other peoples rides get ideas to change it and make it ur own good effort people

 

[Middo]

^ cant agree with that more, there was a time when people would get slated for doing anything different, now its getting more and more accepted and appreciated, after all if we all did the same thing where would new ideas come from

 

[makavelli]

looking proper good that.

did you sell the carbon cover andy?

yeah matey, patty had it off me

i was going for the cup look and keeping the cover off but decided to give it a while and let mark work his magic on my engine cover lol

Indeed. I should've bought them. lol
I'll source the carbon first and then I'll see what the best plan of action is regarding the bumper strips. Cheers Mark!
