six appeal 53 Posted March 22, 2006 Report Share Posted March 22, 2006 Blimey mate that looks drastic, what you having done!Simon. Link to post Share on other sites
Slim 0 Posted March 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2006 Full respray, grooves in both bumpers, ABT splitter and side skirts filled and smoothed, bumper intake vents smoothed in and colour coded, Polo door handles colour coded, black plastic bit under rear bumper colour coded and a few other general tidying up bits. The arches are being binned too seeing as they shouldn't have been retro-fitted in the first place. Link to post Share on other sites

Slim 0 Posted March 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 He's done a brilliant job of the bumpers. The vents aren't in properly in the last pic, so they'll fit much better when they are: Link to post Share on other sites
mattverth 0 Posted March 25, 2006 Report Share Posted March 25, 2006 Looks tops. I'd do without the mesh in the bonrath vents though - how bout fixing on a 3inch piece of 90 degree plastic tubing and painting that in on the drivers side - ready to fix 3 inch cai tube on the back - just a though while your there!

Slim 0 Posted March 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2006 It is a full spray, the roof's already been painted, full surface spray anyway, not bothering with taking doors/windows off as it doesn't really need it. Link to post Share on other sites

Earwig 89 Posted March 27, 2006 Report Share Posted March 27, 2006 Looking good.If it's not a rude question how much is the respray costing you? Link to post Share on other sites
Slim 0 Posted March 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2006 If I didn't bugger about with smoothing and colour coding, it would've been just into 4 figures, not sure how much the final bill will be with everything done. Link to post Share on other sites
