if you want a long lasting paint job you'll need to remove a lot more than that!

seats, carpet dash all need to go so they can blow the pain into these areas rather than mask them and risk edges coming up.

remove wings and bonnet and spray these separate to the car to allow the hidden edges of the panels to be painted.

take the engine out please it'll look 10 times better with the correct colour engine bay.

also you will want to remove window's windw rubbers etc. especially the rear side windows as the rubbers on these are too small to tape up, if you skip this bit you will get problems in the future. (new rear side windows will be needed usually as the rubber is bonded into the glass and is damaged on removal.

Would love to throw that around in the condition its in!

Interested to see how this comes out in White!

Who said that work with ripping parts is done

[Rain]

I still have few things to do on car, everything will be completed during this weekend

 

[SeanM86]

[cat171]

I think that I will leave this lights, the look better after I put rear reg plate

I`ll post few pictures after I finish everything on it, and then you`ll see that they look much more nicer that now

Sorry, but I don`t understand your question

 

[@Spoonie]

I really like that, not sure about the rear lights.

 

[Brand86]

Looks cool mate really like it in white.

I would c hange the rear lights to standard as mentioned and fit either some RS alloys (the 182 anthractie wheels could look good) or else, dare I say it, some Turinis...? :quiet:

 

[kully]

will look smart

 

[VIICarCare]

Is the paint job on it a good one ?? Does it look like it came out of the factory like that ?

oh that
well, they did a really good job, only problem is with doors, but that is a long story, and that problem will be solved in 2 weeks, they will repaint them.

 

[jonny mac]

get rid of the lights asap, maybe a set of the black lexus style off ebay would suit the back however very sexy in white!

 

[RichRSi]

I would normally never say this but I think lexus lights would actually look ok on this due to it's clean white look the silver would contrast quite well.

However those wheels are shocking, sorry to be negative but I can't stand alloys where the spokes stick out further than the rim, old Maxi Rally clios can get away with it but imo that's the only car that can pull it off sucessfully.

 

[Rain]

I am looking now for new wheels
And I would rather go for 16" than to 17"
If anyone have some sugestions please wrote them
All I want is that new wheels are light, and that they are not OZ super/ultra leggera becouse almost every car has them. I want some unique wheels that will fit nicely
And I prefer antracit ones, but I can always paint that so that is not important too much

 

[RichRSi]

You could go for a set of very light magnesium wheels, something like this but 16" and white.

With a cage, some buckets and a stripped interior it'd look like you are ready to hit the tarmac stages of the wrc.

 

[Rain]

interior is already striped
curently i am looking at some sparco roll bar, and sparco seats
and i found some wheels that I like, but they are for Japan only

 

[RichRSi]

They would look ok.

I would be going for that rally look, if it's multi spoke white wheels you want then you are spoiled for choice really. Infact spraying a whole car didn't phase you so why not find the style wheels you want and spray them?

 

[Rain]

clio and his grandfather

 

[Gaz_]

jeeze!

What model is that?

 

[Peperami]

Get a set of speedline 2118 wheels on it, will look good

 

[Rain]

jeeze!

Renault 4, living legend
