Well first off you wanna be dust free, so plastic sheeting put all around your work base. When spraying using cans, ensure the can is warmed up by bathing it in hot water for a min. Heat up the plastic you are spraying using a genral heater, not to close to burn, warp, melt the plastic. Apply thin layers of paint from about 20cm to avoids drips. i could go on but cba lol.

phase 2 lights, sport spoiler and white badges and boot lock surround required oh and paint the drums black.... anything other than black shows off the fact its a low spec model

cheers for the coments, i know rattle can laquer is utter useless, never get a smooth finish, but im using pro lite ultra clear laquer quite expensive but seems to do a good job.
i was thinking ph2 lights or smoke current ones, opinions? badges maybe changed il do some photshopping later see which looks best. as soon as i did the drums i thought the same thing, but if i try and hide it people are just gonna be like, stop trying to make it something it not, blah blah blah. lol

yeah im not happy with the overall finish as the bumper is a slightly more "creamy" colour to it. might be re-done tbh.

Ph2 rear lights rather than smoked ph1's... Smoked lights and collated drums screams chav sorry ... And painting them black won't be hiding them... It'd be refurbishing them black would be better IMO... Looking forward to more progress

Could you try and spray the bolts white? I think that would look pretty smart Great project so far

Looks nice. Not a fan of the wheels though.
Any questions just PM me. Did the same with my white ph1 few years ago.

thanks guys. ph2 lights and cup spoiler is deffo on the list. carbon wrapped would look nice, but when it all done, i might think about a black roof and black spoiler. il do a photshop to make my decission.
