Re: Supercharged Sunflower

Made a bracket up at work to give the SC abit of extra support, & sprayed the charger silver to freshen it up

Nice work!

I'd paint the Rotrex lettering in sunflower. Just because.....

Porsche's are on par with that as well. Quite shocked with that, given the minimal extra work to get everywhere painted vs. the additional cost.

I thought you would have been into the powder coating seen as though you like your pretty things lol, some bits powder coated red would look nice on yours ;-)

This thing sounds like it's going to be immaculate when it's finished.

Maybe not immaculate but heading that way when its all done, might aswell have everything cleaned & painted while the engines out. Hows yours coming on?

Mines at a bit of a slow pace at the minute. Wouldn't mind tarting up the engine bay a little, but want the important stuff sorted first off.
