Full Respray Time:D

Cars booked in for a complete respray on monday at AGMORS in south street, ive seen a lot of theyre work and im happy that they will be doing a good job, so photos to follow in a week and a halfish
the cars remaining its original colour just now as i dont have the time to fully strip it for a inside out respray a different colour however going to have a few subtle changes, the front grills are going to go a titanium grey colour and the rear bumper valance(the lower part) is going a shiney black, i was considering getting the roof painted another colour but have decided against it as i want to keep it subtle, and i think the grey wheels and grills are different enough
also got a shiney new badge to go on the back i bought a year ago at much cheapness so itll be looking nice and fresh
just need the wheels refurbed again early next year as theres a couple of kerb marks and itll be like new visually

other things on the cards shortly is a custom made o/e sized cat section made in stainless so the car will have a fully stainless exhaust system on it, and need the tailpipe lengthened as its a scorpion system off a mk1, new bilstien shocks all round and next year planning on making a new boot install, a nice tidy out the way one
also new gearbox and flywheels are sitting there to be fitted, along with a new clutch pedal so just needing a clutch and thatll be fitted too

so in short, cant wait for it to be back together and sorted how i want it, i know its only a 1.6 but i want it to be as good as possible as i plan to be driving it another few years yet

ask for extra mettalic in there so it sparkles that little bit more, or even have a blue pearl added to the clear coat, would look good on a silver car, like the idea of the grills a different colour

i think il be down to see you in the new year steve for a full correction after the winter

Grey grille will ruin it Ritchy

Let me know how good a job they do though bud, I'll be needing the ZR done in the spring.

grey grill will look awesome like the SV grills

will do mate, theyre doing it for ?1200 all in which is cracking considering the damage to the rear end and all the bumpers and windows ect will be getting removed so theres no masking marks, soon see though
