[Scadden182]

[Harpham]

I like the diamond, but id prefer to keep the renault sport badge!

 

[BIFCAIDS]

like the diamond looks like one big badge/button now

 

[Tigger]

Looks good, got any more pics of it?
Are you doing the front diamond & bullets too?

+1 or some newer style RS badges.

 

[Tigger]

Keep the Silver lettering on the bullets & get the background done Grey the same as the rest to tie it in

 

[Hixle]

newer style RS badges.

Shout.

Colour looks spot on, nice and subtle :approve:

 

[Scadden182]

wheres the best place to get the reno sport badge....i see ktec do them but does any1 else kno where to get them for a slightly lower price?

cheers for the comments aswell....ill try and do the bullets this weekend.

 

[guysy]

Ktec or renaults probably best for new RS badge. Paint that Grey as well.

Leave the bullets silver and paint the text in the same grey.

That would all tie in perfectly.

 

[Scadden182]

dam lol....i just sat for half an hour or so and masked the letters when i realised i was gonna paint the letters.

 

[VeinAST]

I would do the button in the boot lock silver now like the car

[jesus]

Looks alright that

 

[5parky]

Very subtle, i like it.

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

I like it! I did the same on mine

 

[Scadden182]

so right now....the bullets are drying, masked and done the letters graphite grey...all the silver bits on the dash, like the two strips above the glovebox and to right of the steering wheel, the bit off the steering wheel and the bit off the gearstick are all sprayed the same colour aswell. just a matter of waitin for them to dry

This is what i'd do.

How did you mask-off your lettering mate?

 

[Scadden182]

How did you mask-off your lettering mate?

masking tape and a stanley blade, ive f**ked it up big style....will post a pic tomoro, need new bullets as the paint reacted with the plastic and gubberd it.:dapprove:

 

[Scadden182]

and as u can see its gubbed....the paint seeped thru the seams of maskin tape reacted with the glue. so ive rubbed it all down an started again but im doin the opposite, dark backround, silver letters.

(awaits piss rippin)

 

[Tigger]

Oh dear
Did you sand/prime the letters, what paint did you use?

 

[nick.]

looks great m8 rear end looks alot cleaner without the renault sport bage imo, hope you get the bullets sorted soon m8

 

[Scadden182]

Oh dear

[Scadden182]

[Scadden182]

imitation is the best form of...suckin up ones arse where did u get ur wipers from?

 

[Tigger]

Looks good now I'm guessing you sprayed the letters instead of brushing them?
