lol, it\'s only libel if I don\'t follow through !!  hehe

A week may be pushing it though,  :)

It\'s only libel if you make an accusation, if he doesn\'t pony up the glasses it\'s just false advertising.

Car looks awesome though, it\'s going to be good to see more rotors on track.

Apparently putting details of your car spec in your signature means the nice folks on exile-rotorsport think you\'re a fool.  I can think of no higher compliment!

Thanks guys....

A few more of the beastie outside the booth, the inner wheel arches have now been treated and hardened and the
engine bay has a fresh white layer.  :)









Sicknote

I\'m sure you\'re all getting fed up of these pics of the shell coming back but I is excited again.  :)

Quote from: Grant Monkhouse;858985Why did you keep the engine bay white?

Would have meant completely taking the electrics, master cylinder, fuel and oil lines out so just kept it simple, I actually
quite like it though, gives it the race feel.  :)

Grant Monkhouse

I think it looks good, gives it contrast
for things to look at although being white I would have OCD to clean it all the time.

I don\'t think it looks good on road cars though, it gives the impression that the person was too lazy to give the whole car a respray. :( me and my dad have done 5 cars, complete back to shell resprays, was a pain in the arse but it all matched and looked good. Well worth the extra effort

Defo agree with the road car thing, looks unfinished, I made a decision today, I\'m going to take moulds of those rear arches
and give Roxy the same treatment !!  :)

Grant Monkhouse

Won\'t taking molds damage the new paint? I think roxy will look good with those rears, but I would do something different with the fronts so the cars are different but as wide as each other:D

I will find a picture of the front wings I really like at the moment

Grant Monkhouse

TCP MAGIC wide body kit, I really like the front wings on this kit but the rears don\'t suit them,

Sicknote

I\'m in agreement, defo needs something different on the front.

The fabrication guys said it\'s soo much easier with fresh smooth paint to make the moulds and the paintwork will be absolutely fine.  :)
