JODY T Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 I've had this car now for 4 years, and the paint was beginning to look tired so I've taken the plunge to get it resprayed Here's some pictures so far More to come Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westy Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Staying silver!? Would love a full respray but do they really need to let the interior get in that state in the process!? That will take some cleaning! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTurtleshead Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Why have you bare-metalled just the roof? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JODY T Posted August 3, 2014 Author Share Posted August 3, 2014 No it'll be lambo Grigio testilo (pearl gun metal) My mate is doing it, it'll be fully valeted when it's done The paint on the roof cracked and we don't want it to come back so we took it right back the rest of the car isn't that bad really so it'll be prepared primed etc after the parking dents are sorted Can't wait for it to be finished but as I'm helping it's gonna take a month IDE have thought Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Are the roof panel to pillar joints brazed? It looks that way in the photos. Most seem to be spot welded and filled with Bondo. Nice job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JODY T Posted August 3, 2014 Author Share Posted August 3, 2014 It's like that on all 4 corners Chris, i thought it was standard.. Looks cool though almost want to do the whole car polish it and then laquer it all lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JODY T Posted October 29, 2014 Author Share Posted October 29, 2014 Just got brand new headlights too! Can't wait for the colour to go on.. I bought a Trd spoiler as well, but unsure so I'm gonna get both spoilers painted so I have the choice later on.. I'm hoping to have all the plastic trims, front splitter, trd wing section in gloss black I think it will contrast the gun metal lovely.. Might even get a diffuser but will have to wait for funds!
