Well thank you very much mate, I wont lie but even I'm like yeah that's looking pretty good and ive had so pretty daft
modded cars but I'm liking this more and more yet it was only supposed to be a stop gap :roll:

Also with the look ive never done a part murdered look on a black car as I always think its to predictable but I guess it just works better on some cars.

Yes I really must get some drive height pics sorry :thumbs:

Dropped the car off at the painters last night for a full front end repaint, its not bad in the slightest
but just want it looking the best I can.

Then i'll have to rope in a mate to detail the rest of the car as its swirl city and being black makes
it even more noticeable :roll:

Loving the stealth look here, evil...Black is a mare colour though, especially gloss. I was initially considering gloss for my wrap but decided against it and Adi talked me out it. I know it's not cheap but perhaps you would consider putting some PPF film on the front end once it's been painted. Give it that extra protection. I certainly will be with my Mustang 350GTH when it arrives in a few months, Image

Wow that's incredible I bet you cant wait.
No protector on the front for me it will be abused on the full trip to Austria for Worthersee and then
ill decide what to do, it will be sold then or wrapped for one last look.
I'm not like most show goers fitting scene tape and stuff I just like to use it.
I do see the positive in the film if a car that's going to be kept a few years for sure.

Looks so much better than the B5 without roof rails - inspired!

A question Jules, when you've had it painted how do you prevent the odd stone chip from reappearing? Surely every time you drive it there must be a risk of getting a chip or two?
