Thank u all, i was exspecting flames.
The paint was dun with a basecoate of black all over the car then added the fine edge to make the outline of the graphics then masked the whole care sept the graphics and painted them in mazda perky matalic blue then softend the edges (if ya look close) with gunmetal gray and tipped the spikes in silver, unmasked the rest of the paint and laqured the whole lot with laquer mixed with a tiny bit of black then 2 clear coats of laquer over the top of the full car. was hard work but worth the effort imo.
I used a small gravity fed spray gun for the graphics.

Think my RX8 rims require bigger spacers on the back.

BTW anyone from here near doncaster ?

There\'s a few of us based in yorkshire Steve. Tesco\'s in doncaster is starting to do 99ron fuel so it may be an excuse for a ride out that way.
On another subject does your place do four wheel laser alignment?
