Before the car even went in my mate suggested doing it Matt LeMans Blue but I was really unsure. Kind of wish I'd listened to him now.

Looks good the way it is too Raj - no looking back on the 'should've been matt' mate. :thumbsup:

So all the car except the boot. No pics of the bumpers?

Man this is going to look VERY clean! You'll be bricking it everytime you park it in public! :rofl:

Don't think the roof is sprayed either.

Thanks all.

Everything apart from roof and tailgate is being done. As you say Sanj even the drive back from picking it up will be very tense. Got to trek all the way back up to Wolverhampton and will probably be slowing down trucks up the M40...lol.

Bumpers will be done with the colourcoding of the mouldings so prep work will commence shortly. It's a lot of work as they will have to build up the primer a few times with flattening in-between each layer to smooth it all.

Very best of luck mate.

Can't wait for the what you have install for the interior bits - give me a clue! :D

I have no idea what to do with mine, wrap or spray. Don't even know what colour or pattern to choose. :scratchhead:

I have no imagination... but then most of you knew that. :P

Sanj, spraying would be easier as if you don't like it you just respray, no sticky glue to remove. You could always try the chrome look????

LOL. I was going to spray the trim gloss black, but then came across a steal of a deal so couldn't pass on it.

It's black in colour if that helps.... :thumbsup:
