scott.wild Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 (edited) Finally found somewhere to handle all the prep and respray, turns out a highly recommended local garage that i never knew about. All recommendations and previous examples of work are really good and they have done work on quite a few prestige cars. Here's some pictures of the progress so far and i will post some more when i get them. As it was when it went in: Progress: Edited September 26, 2015 by scott.wild (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abtin90 Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Gorgeous choice of colour! Will you be keeping the body kit? As for the wheels I think the colour would look best with hyper silver wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott.wild Posted September 8, 2015 Author Share Posted September 8, 2015 Gorgeous choice of colour! Will you be keeping the body kit? As for the wheels I think the colour would look best with hyper silver wheels. Yes keeping the body kit, the c-west skirts are being blended in though. I have had that bumper lying around for 12 months or more after breaking the do luck. Not sure if i should change the headlights, currently jspec plastic lenses, bodyshop are going to see how they clean up first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scott.wild Posted September 10, 2015 Author Share Posted September 10, 2015 Quick update, intercooler was looking worse for wear for so while everything is off i decided to order a Garage Whifbitz Intercooler Kit, plan is to go single around 600bhp I have also just noticed there is no front crashbar, most likely because it had a Do Luck fitted, will create a wanted post but if anyone has a front crashbar please drop me a pm. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scott.wild Posted September 18, 2015 Author Share Posted September 18, 2015 Colour is looking good, i have decided to stay with the 18" Rota GTR's in the existing silver/alloy colour, question now is brake caliper colour.....any suggestions and pictures would be great, guys in the bodyshop are happy to test a few different colours out and suggested a lime green or similar green to the Tein street flex coilovers, not too sure and difficult to visualise.

Ric Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Just a nice OEM black dude, with nice contrasting white stickers. Nice colour too, i remember talking with you a few years ago about possibly buying this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supra matt Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Looks great Scott I would go yellow on the calipers as really suits the gun metal colour, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOB B Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Gold, thats a fantastic colour on the car, or black brakes and gold wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
