  Petrol Blue 182.
Some people on here may be aware that I bought a bit of a dog ph1 in Pearl Black tail end of last year. Interior and general performance of the car were perfect (although it did need belts doing) but the exterior paint work was lacking.

It had basicaly been sitting for a year un-used and had all amounts of crap on the paint work, which was half sorted with a detail. will need anouther one at some point.

Main downfall was the bonnet and the front bumper, bumper was stone chipped to death and I dont have clue what went on with the bonnet, but it was a disaster.

However I looked past these downfalls and bought it. and I have no regrets.


Have a look in the Project thread to see how it all started and where I'm at now with it.

More then happy with the results (it's proably the first time I've seen PB in its true form, what a colour!)

Pics aren't the best effort, but you get the jist.

What a difference from the first pics in your prject thread!

But as said, a set of ph2 side strips would finish it off nicely:)

Nice one.

Thanks for the kind comments, really chuffed with the results, I need to get out and clean up all the faded plastics.

I'll have a look into colour coded ph2 side strips but I may need to see some examples first :)

Looking good fella! Who did the paintwork in the end? Still annoyed that the boss stopped private jobs at work.....

Yeah its a shame as I would have prefered you to do it, had it done at a local company called Bodytone. I have a friend who works there
