cream rims ftmfw!!

 

[theduck]

Quite like the cream and the purple tbh, and if I was you I would keep them purple as they will be easier to keep clean, lol

 

[StephenJ]

Cream FTW Jason!

 

[Rob]

I can understand the thinking behind the purple and it does look quite cool, but the cream just looked "right"

Although I'm not you, so I cannot really say, I think the cream gives the car exactly the look you're going for.

 

[jesus]

Cream was pretty cool actually, only just seen the pics.

 

[JonniP]

love the cream wheels.

 

[Jason_E]

I'll probably be going cream tbqh.

 

[jesus]

The green suits it.

 

[Ben]

Cream looks awesome, suits the car really well. Purple isn't my cuppa.

 

[VeinAST]

Purple works well. Think the style of the rims allows it to.

 

[Chris J]

great minds jason

I think the cream looked much better on the green though if Im honest, dont do too much cream though, so many people overdo the colours.

 

[Jason_E]

Yeah, the only thing I don't like about cream is that it's on 18's and too much cream looks a bit gash. I really like how the colour looks too. Ford Purple Velvet.

 

[gaz44]

25 pages of Bora chat...wow!

 

[Triki]

Purple looks W@ank.

Just do them cream cnut face

 

[Brookie.]

I also vote for cream, looks really good!
Purple isn't great.

 

[jobac]

[Rob]

Cream, you toss bag.

 

[Jason_E]

I can't make my mind up. But if I do cream I need help lol.

 

[MaLicE]

knowing you have hellaflush or fatlace stickers on your car seriously makes me want to go remove mine...

 

[Rob]

Why do you need help you greebo?

Malice, my mrs love's your avatar.

 

[Jason_E]

Rob, I love your Mrs.

And because I am w**k at reburbing. On a scale of 1 to s**t I am definatly Jedward when it comes to refurbs.

 

[Rob]

What are you f**king up mate? It's not that difficult after some practice tbh, it's more about patience than anything else.

Clean off.

Sand down, thoroughly, don't be afraid to start off with metal files/very harsh paper.

Clean, big time, remove all grease and s**te.

Primer, three layers at least, thin-ish coats, don't let it get thick and run, 15 minutes inbetween, leave to dry for 24 hours.

If there are any imperfections, sand these back, and re-primer, leave for 24 hours...

Once you're happy with this, paint, at least three coats, same as the primer, not too thick, no runs, leave for 24 hours.

If you mess it up, just sand back lightly, one more coat over the top. Leave for 24 hours again.

Lacquer, this time, not 15 minutes inbetween coats, just until it's tacky. Two/three coats.

 

[Jason_E]

LOL at the edit reason.

Not gunna lie, I'm a lazy b*****d. Can I just Nitro Mors the s**tty paint job i've already done? Because its really annoying to sand down as its all weird and sticky and peelable.

 

[Rob]

You can, but then you'll have to a) prep the bare metal, and b) primer quite a bit. (get some high build)

You must have really done a s**t job! LOL! Sounds like you didn't wait inbetween stages? i.e the 24 hours?

 

[Naith]

close the thread then if your a lazy b*****d and stop wasting peoples time.

on the other hand, man the f**k up, live a little instead of *****ing about like some middle england schoolboy by doing something special and get fellow internet and car adoring tossers respect.

 

[Jason_E]

LOOOL. I'm more interested in the mechanics and wokring around problems and stuff. This stuff does bore me, but if it's got to be done...

And yes mate I didn't wait, I just wanted the colour on to see how it looked. I will give it a proper go next time . I used etch primer before, then normal primer on top.

 

[Scrooge]

Cream is best!

 

[Hutchie]

i honestly thought silver looked the best out of the three colours so far J

 

[BIFCAIDS]

Safely say if you have Hellaflush stickers on yours jason you shal be stuck down. Thus why i only rock illest n ecaltaf

Is flushness not enough to deserve Hellaflush stickers then? Genuine question btw, I have zero idea about the whole hellaflush "scene", just know it looks fecking cool and I've got an itch to try it out on something slow.

 

[Jason_E]

People get really snobby and arsey about the stickers being put on cars that aren't insanely flush. Mine is as flush as my arches/ driveshaft will allow for now anyway. Roll on payday!
