New headlights, tail lights & wheels

[MillSpeed]

I know what you mean mate, something like that would annoy the hell out of me too. I\'ve got the \'99 spec lights on mine & quite like them but I recon I\'m gonna take a chance on these.

And now a full respray!
After a month in the bodyshop, my car finally came out last week.
The surfaces were flatbacked followed by the a white ground coat and then 4 coats of colour (4.5 litres) and 3 clear coats.
There was initially a problem with the new paint reacting with the old ground coat which could have meant taking the surfaces back to the metal, but a rub down of the affected areas and further coats cured the problem.

I am pleased with the end results and I think it doesn\'t look too lary. I wanted a more pale/ translusent colour as so many people go for aggressive colours so I wanted go for something a bit different. I took this photo at sunset to try and bring out the vivid gold from the blue.

That is one lovely car mate. Top notch.

How come if you live in Guildford that i\'ve never seen you about!?!? Will have to keep an extra big eye out for you now, not that you wont stand out enough anyway in that :rollin

Where did you get the spray job done by the way? Thinking of maybe having some work done myself and looking to find someone good in the area.

Are you going to Rotorstock? Some guys are meeting up at J11 ofthe M25 early saturday morning if your interested.

Are you bringing her to R2?  will be good to in flash.

cheers

Phwooooar! That colour is perfect for the RX-7, makes it look really exotic.

Thanks for all your kind comments guys, I have committed  alot of time and money into this car to get it looking how it is.
Ada7, the work was carried out at a  bodyshop in Milford tel no 01483 424911.
I tend to take the car out at night when there are less idiots on the road (it\'s not a daily drive) which may be why you haven\'t seen me about.
I will be at R11 but plan on joining the Monday convoy although  I am pondering with the idea of going up Sunday afternoon and camping there.

Thanks for the number mate. I actually live in Milford so great to know there\'s somewhere that close to me :rollin
Be cool to see you around town some day. Will try and say hi at Rotorstock if your about. I\'m fairly new to all this kinda thing and will be cool to know what good garages and stuff there is about locally for me to use and get parts from

I remember having a brief  exchange with an Adam in a black FD a while ago in Guildford near the train station , while I was washing the car. Was that you by any chance?
