Scott Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 oh seems a weird way of doing it, we usually fit these before primer. IMO that is the lazy way of doing it. I specifically asked for all my kit to be sprayed off of the car before it was even attached..... even though it was blended. We pulled our wardrobe out of our bedroom a few weeks ago. Had been in there since we moved in. The wallpaper and paint behind it was different from the rest of the room. The flooring also stopped at the wardrobe, was carpet underneath. Same principle.... half arsed. Different horses of course though. I'm all for individuality but IMO you should have sold the MSB car and greened another, so rare nowadays Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm all for individuality but IMO you should have sold the MSB car and greened another, so rare nowadays completely agree, i'm about to get spats fitted and the previous owner kindly put a crack behind the rear wheel, i told the garage that i wanted it to look completely perfect before the spats go on, they told me that the spats would be bonded on if they don't sit flush anyway but i still insisted i wanted it perfect and back to standard before the spats are fitted. so if i was getting a full respray i would definately want the spats sprayed and fitted after.
