My Big Red Shiney Snout!

[Nik da Greek]

Just felt so chuffed at getting my car back with the bodywork all done that I though i\'d plop up some pics here for anyone who cant look in the members section (or cant be ars!d reading my inane drivel there, lol). Just picked her up today, my Ruby and she\'s beautiful again, not a mark or blemish, no more melting, sagging, pink front bumper, no more gaps in the wing/door gap, no more chewed up sills hanging out her gusset.

Gotta take my metaphorical hat of to Jason at Super 7 again, I dunno how he continues to turn my sows ear of a car into a silk purse, but he\'s done it again. It\'s just a mgnificent spray job, and the fit is fanastic considering the awful fitment of the stuff I gave him, especially the flubbery rubbery skirts, which were really only fit for the bin. Anyway, enough of my waffle, what d\'ya reckon?

Looks very very nice mate.  Not too keen on the front bumper but that\'s down to your own personal taste so ignore me.

Glad to see your finally getting some enjoyment out of your car!!

Cheers, dude. I don\'t mind if people dont wanna like the bumper. I have to say, I really didnt the first time I saw one, and I still think the rest of the 15th Anniversary Mazdaspeed kit is really nasty. The more I saw this bumper, the more I liked it, though. I think it\'s cos its very like the stock one, only...more so. A bit more aggressive, a bit more stylish, without being OTT. It\'s all personal taste, and mine just doesn\'t run to massive vents and scoops and canards (or any other sorta duck:Laugh). Vive la differance!

[Kevin]

Yeah I know what you mean, I think for me personally though it\'s the size of the bumper lights which detracts from the rest of the bumper, which as you said is quite stylish/aggressive.

Anyway it\'s good to be different!!

nicely done there Nik :god

[connor66]

I like, nice and subtle. Doesn\'t look like lumps of plastic have been stuck on everywhere, retains the lines of the rex just as they should be. Thumbs up

Looks great Nick, glad the car is coming along much better, she looks great!!:burnout:yes:guinness

[Nik da Greek]

Cheers for all the kind comments, guys. Liam, I had actually thought about a carbon waffer-thin splitter, but there\'s one particularly mahoosive speed bump on the way into the car park at work that I think may be the final word on that idea. Tempting, though :yes......

Locki, she is coming along a bit better, mate, she looks nice now, anyway. Shame the powerplant frame\'s broken now, though! Gotta say one thing for my luck, it\'s consistent!:Giggle

[fil_auto]

Yes - we like indeed - always good to see a nice shiney red car!! Must work on mine again over the w/e #;o)

[marcusd666]

looks great mate

[gyles18]

saw your car down there other week being prep\'d....
my car is down there as well and he\'s spraying so glad to hear your happy with what he has done :Thumbs-up
not all that keen on the bumper but thats my own personal opinion so ignore me

Wotcher!

Looking good dude. Looks much better in the flesh and ill eat my words wrt that bumper looking shocking. Still think your engine bay needs sorting out though

[Nik da Greek]

Cheers, guys! :Thumbs-upGyles, I got a sneak preview of your bonnet the other day. It\'s well good, almost seems a shame to paint it, although I\'ve still a sneaky love of Montego Blue....

Blimey! Was that the rarest of things, Jit (almost) admitting being wrong :Giggle? As near as I\'ll ever get, methinks :yes! Cheers, dude, I know if you\'re ok with it, it must be ok, if that makes sense. Gutted I\'ve missed your Mazdaspeed powerplant frame, though, looks like my typical bad timing there.

I need some red Samco stuff, I think. I may be starting to feel you and Adam have got a point there.......

Wotcha back atcha

[Jit]

Me? admit i was wrong? nooooo i said it looks better in the flesh....rather in the way that jade goody looks better in the flesh compared to the pics where the tabloids and magazines appear to be trying to make her look worse (didnt think that was possible!)....(im in NO WAY implying that jade goody looks good btw...before the "shoulda gone to spec savers" smartarses butt in).

dude...that PPF went a looooooooooong time ago....im talking like atleast a month ago!!
Just whack a stock PPF on there for now dude...them MS ones are appearing a lot harder to find these days
