I like it, wonder what the whole car would look like done in the same way.

Mel, did you put any laquer on after the paint?
wheeyyyy kouki rear lights and chuki skirts fitted
Up close its horrible, looks like orange peel
Daz - no laquer, it shouldn't need I
Clive - yay
Ah, is it a solid colour then? Maybe it jus need sanding and polishing up then.Originally Posted by MEL

How dare that weed brush against you new paint work! KILL EEET
a solid colour should be shiny no matter how bad its applied. that looks like a basecoat whihc needs some laquer..
that was a tin of nissan kuro black supposedly, gonna order some more today then flat it back ready for another coat next week
Looking good mate.
Cheers jon
Will pop round when i get 5mins, it's been a while
Where did you get the paint from then?
Dal had it from spraying His roof
Got the latest stuff from paints4u
Flatted the orange peel back ready for painting yesterday and the difference fresh paint has made is awesome, really pleased with the way it's turned out
Pics tomorrow
It's now official, I've been to the ring
Car also had a service which included new spark plugs as the old ones were coked to fcuk. Fcuked balljoints were changed - apex seem to have a different stockist/manufacturer as the design has changed for the better
New paint just needs flatting back and a good going over with a da and some g3
Blyton is a proper hoot, nice easy to push on track which is a little more technical than it looks on paper/video
Booked myself a tuition session which happened after my first mini session and im glad i didJust getting the lines right into The "ump" and out through Lancaster then through bunga bunga was giving me an extra 10mph on the straights
Edited to say the car behaved perfectly - 170 miles each way with about 30 laps inbetween

Cracking stuff dude, glad it went well
Pics looks good too
If you'd put your pop ups down you'd have found another 10mph on the straight though
Glad you enjoyed it mel.
How did the new video camera do?
Looks like you had a good time
Nice bit of lean in some of the shots. New anti roll bars next?

Daz - no vids, they don't allow suction mounts
Pablo - Yes, at some point but its not urgent
That's a bummer.
