dandan - I hope you remembered what I said about the laquer on the nose not being as good as on the metal paintwork.

Wings are on, removed the indicators for application, but aside from that these panels were relatively easy to apply.



So I now have a metallic grey front end:



Question, do i do the splitter to finish off the front end?

looks awesome mate, I am following this one with interest.
How much skill is involved in applying the vynil, I fancy having a go myself, as mine is due for a respray soon, and looks like I could get a better finish using this method, especially if I am going to put some graphics on it.
I presume you can get just about any colour under the sun.
Thanks Pete.

Yes this method could be used to completely change the colour of a car, but it will never be quite as good a finish as a real paintjob to be honest.
You could probably do it yourself, but would need at least twice as much vinyl as you think because you\'ll do a huge amount of trial and error. Still a big saving over a sprayjob, but it does have drawbacks.

Got some more progress for you all, I have finished the fade from grey at the front to black at the back with descending thickness stripes:




And this afternoon i got all of the full colour sections on, with the help of my brother.




just got to put the Ghost decals on, and a few finishing touches, then it should be ready for Broadlands tomorrow!

RobbieRX-7

Pointman

Very nice, looks better in the flesh than it did with your drawings.
Will be nice to see the pics when it is finally finished  :yes

asp

what spoiler do u have?
the rims r nice but i think u need different 1s to go with what uv done

dandan

Dammit you are right i DO need bigger rims!! anyone feeling generous?

Asp, I have a nameless Carbon spoiler that might be a \'gt\' wing possibly? i don\'t know

got a few more pics but i will put them up when i get to my work computer tomorrow. i need more of these bank holiday weekends! :):)

How will it stand up to stone chips, parking dings etc???

The rear wing looks like a GP Sports wing from their Chokets range.  Here\'s a link:
