My Vip Style Aristo Project

[lam]

Boot plugs (lol)

Flush and primed boot

Rear end completely transformed!

Wet sanding will be taking place this week now that I've chosen the colour. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the body will be painted by next week...!!!

[chrisis200]

Some fantastic work being put in, first time I've seen this thread I shall be following from now on :)

[TigerFish]

Looking good. I think the de-fog on the boot will improve the rear end a lot.

[TommyH]

Some great stuff your having done, very interesting thread. Looking forward to the finished pictures. Well done.

[Guest inicol63]

Looking great so what colour do we think it going to be ?

I am going for pearl white like the old Renault 5 turbo

[aido]

Mate I think I said this over on Club Aristo but this is going to be the best JZS16x that the UK and most probably Europe has seen to date!

[el_gencer]

The quality of workmanship looks outstanding. Can't wait to see it with some colour.

[aztecbandit1]

As a few have allready said the quality of the work being done is spot on, and i must admit i've never liked the rear fogs on the GS/Aristo's seemed to ruin the rear end a little?

Looking forward to seeing it in colour and on those huge rims B)

[Anuj]

full respect to you mate, i cant wait to see the final results.

the quality of the work looks. well quality.

keep it up mate.

Some more great pics, the side repeaters look fantastic, the attention to detail is exellent.

I am wondering what you are going to come MOT time about a rear foglight ?

[Rich OB]

Great thread! And like Wozza said superb attention to detail. I can't wait to see the finished car in colour!

This bodyshop seem to know their stuff.

Didn't think about the rear foglight thing though.

And are side repeaters a legal requirement too? I mean if you smoothed them off would it make a difference come MoT time?

[ormi]

amazing thread and amazing car cant wait to see it finished!!!!!

and to the question above side indicators are a requirement and a legal one too also a mot requirement.

[LexusIS200Sam]

loving it so far mate!! not to sure on the rear arches but im sure il be eating my words when its painted lol!! rims are pure s*x though keep it up!

[hodaz]

Same as above, about the rear arches, put sure I'll proved wrong once its painted, Keep us up to date

[sparkystav]

I'm sorry but no to the puddle lights.

[chrisis200]

I'm sorry but no to the puddle lights.

What are they? lol

[sparkystav]

Like Neons, but seperate little LED's that shine in spots.

[redz_UK]

i dunno.. i could get use to them!!

its looking great so far!

[chrisis200]

I see thanks stav, I infact am still a fan of neons (this is a show car quality so thats fine IMHO)..lol If it wasnt for a saga on eBay i'd have some fitted now, but they were fake, rubbish, dangerous & eventually got my money back phew..

But I would prefer the normal neons, still cool & differnt none the less...

[katana92_uk]

oh man this thread is just so sexy...cant wait to see final product...

[aido]

Puddle lights for the win - it's the VIP look and this car will pull them off with style :)

[Bazza]

I like this car a lot

cant wait to see the latest updates :)

[aztecbandit1]

Yeh quite like the puddle lights myself, seem to suit the VIP look very well B)

Are you using the candy black as a base coat matey? or will that be the final colour? love the candy colours always look so crisp and clean :)

[Patch234]

I really like this car. You are doing a great job there is no doubt. Please keep posting!
