Good job mate, look forward to seeing how these come out :D

How do you apply the paint to these than mate, have you got a special applicator gun or something or does it come in an aerosol?

Got my own spray guns and compressors matey, as i used to spray where i used to work :)

Fancy earning a few quid? I need my front Trd lip spraying and possibly my bonnet?

:lol: i would mate but its not the same doing someone elses and i wouldnt want to mess it up :o Could do with a bigger compressor for things like the bonnet or i would of done mine by now :)

Good stuff Chris, is it matching the colour of the car well?

Think they might need another layer of top coat matey to make them slightly darker, The new paint makes my car look quite dull at the moment :crybaby:

Out with the wax & i'm sure it will be fine mate.. Looks a great finish though.

Cheers dude, will investigate on how it comes off, think the paint code is 202. (Astral Black) Whats the paint and your effort likely to cost fella?

Perfectly normal for most phones. You'd be amazed how many problems I had from customers who never turn their handset off. Once every 3-4 days for 30 seconds can do all the good!

Thought i'd update my pics again :whistling:

Fitted the skirts today, but not happy with them so got to take them off again, as there a bit too light and need to give them another layer or two of paint :crybaby:

But at least it looks clean again and the exhausts shiny and the darker back lights look better than the old silver ones :)
