well anyway after long days of planning,thinking, taking, painting, paying and waiting its finally complete.

Big thanks to Tahir on here for organising the colour coding of the lips and spoiler and thanks to SiR Cue for alot of bits and help getting it together :top:

sooo gave my lips, SuperDOHC spoiler and mirrors in for spraying and got them back all freshly colour coded

Image

Image

so heres the car and all parts ready to get fitted (the old look)

Image

Image

my little brother took it to garage and kind of rushed it fit the front lip upside down and the spoiler was missing black plastic and it was filthy that night

Image

Image

front looked bare weird :lol:

Took the car for a quick spin and took some pics

the bumpers need clay baring as they gone like a dull white colour and the lips dont match up as they freshly painted but will rectify it soon

Image

Image
the front lip really pulls the full look off

Image
spoiler still needs machine polishing yet

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image
my favourite pic so far

That's the difference between old paint and new paint.

thanks for all comments get better T I'll pop down and see it in reality looks Better at different angles as you walk around

backbox is 5zigen small but loud and the flared tip looks cool

bumpers will be sorted to match the colour its a new look but its far from finished

yeah don't worry Bryan will be sorting the reg but will be don't differently not normal

got another 10 bottles or so just behind in the recaro seat pocket I end polishing others cars than my own good to have some stocked up

thanks for all the comments once again got pestered 3 times if the cars for sale :lol:
