Re: matts xsi euro project - Niall - 09-05-2012

matts xsi euro project - kentiiboii - 09-05-2012

I think seid means take some stickers off Smile
I've just bought the eBay coils ftw sticker as well Smile.
The wheels look ace. Stick in there though. Mine have taken me so long now I'm on my 3rd. The other 2 ain't perfect but they're good. I think next year I'll get them powder coated instead though Smile
All my centre caps are now finished and look awesome Smile just need polish Smile.

matts xsi euro project - Matt - 09-05-2012

Haha, I love the randomness too much, although some are coming off, outdated/ruined ones. To be replaced with fresh ones

Re: matts xsi euro project - Toby - 10-05-2012

But .. But .. In the photo's you've sprayed your rear light cluster bulbs Tongue

Edit: And could do with more pink bits Big Grin

Re: matts xsi euro project - kingy - 10-05-2012

oh mathew, hope you know what your doing mate. really do hope this turns out how you want it to. good luck mate and as toby said, you will need more bulbs.

edit... are those rear lights legal. i like em.

Re: matts xsi euro project - Grant - 10-05-2012

Looks a better job than the first time mate. Looks smart in white!

Have you used a Matt lacquer? Primer (if that is what you used) adsorbs water if left unsealed. If otherwise I'll shut up lol.

Re: matts xsi euro project - 4WayDiablo - 10-05-2012

Haha as Toby says you have painted your light cluster? Lol
Paint looks good although a little thin?

Re: matts xsi euro project - Curt - 10-05-2012

It's Matt white, and the bulbs were already sprayed by the previous owner, so are getting replaced.

As Matt said the bumpers and grill are yet to be sprayed so ignore them...

matts xsi euro project - Matt - 10-05-2012

Yeah need new bulbs Smile

And they are standard lights kingly just tinted and totally legal Smile

Paint is very thick, it's sprayed with primer then Matt white.

Will have Matt lacquer very soon

And then will be flatted Smile

Re: matts xsi euro project - Seid' - 10-05-2012

black mirrors plz

matts xsi euro project - kentiiboii - 10-05-2012

Tbh don't keep taking pictures of it. Cos the quslity isn't doing it justice. Either get a better camera or wait till fcs. Smile but sure it will look epic.

Thought you had your wheels off ATM for spraying?

Re: matts xsi euro project - Curt - 10-05-2012

Don't take pictures of it? Be an interesting project thread then lol

Re: matts xsi euro project - Poodle - 10-05-2012

For a brief moment i saw your spray booth and thought you'd let Niall loose with the shrink-wrap again.

Got my fingers crossed the drying time was enough fella, will be interesting to see how it turns out.

matts xsi euro project - Matt - 10-05-2012

I have a better camera it's just I used my phone. Picture quality is alright. Curts pictures are taken with a really good camera Smile
Mirrors are stayin white. Think they look so much better than the black.
No I don't let Niall loose haha. It would all be pink otherwise.
Dryer ok even though it's pissing it down now lol.

Wheels are coming off in pairs. As I cba with re thread locking my rear spacers lol

In my defence the tab might have been open a while when i replied the last post was Grants Tongue

Either way I think its been cleared up now, I shall be quiet lmao

matts xsi euro project - kentiiboii - 10-05-2012

Yeah you can tell his is better camera.
Hopefully will looks loads better in person Smile. I just think the pics are letting bits down. I know bumpers need spraying but grill doesn't look right and drivers door.
