Its just a simple metal paint in matt black and looks really good, i just wanted to do it all in one colour merely to take your eyes off all the little screw holes etc. Plus im touching on the rat look

Nice plans m8, lowering really improves the looks, but I'm pretty sure the "cleaning" of your rear-badge won't work out, the filler and the "reardoor" are of different materials, and will "work" during temperature differences (for instance warm summerdays and colder summernights) and then you will start to see the rims of the cleaned part

whilst i was reading that i was thinking why is he taking the seats out.

thanx il keep you updated.

The reason for taking the seats out were to make way for my new buckets and to keep that rear bare with just a roll cage and spare alloy. just a look that i like really

I got the coilies from a guy off another forum no name but v v cheap

Ok i picked her up from the body shop on monday and here are the results of my matt black respray:

Im really pleased with the out come

I had to crank to front coilies up so i could fit the A frame under to tow to the bodyshop so the front will be lower as they still got to be cranked back down and also iv got to fit my clear front indicators also.

Next are the wheels and other bits and bobs on the exterior, then moving on to the huge job of the interior :paranoid:
