Right... Refurbing the clones and so will need to be painting them soon... What I wanted to go for is going to be pretty expensive which sucks ass so I'm looking for ideas as I can't decide atm!
Remember, silver hdi and I don't want it to look shit! Also going to have the lion in the centre a colour or something different... As said, looking for ideas!
Cheers peeps
Emma

What was you going to go for?
Why not have a go at doing it yourself? Or get danny to help. If they havnt got tyres on its fairly painless

Sean, of course danny is helping me lol and I am doing it myself its just getting the paint mixed properly so it doesn't look horrible and not how I wanted it... Not taking tyres of as it's too much effort.
Like that for dannys car Scott!

I'm after a silver 306, and I'm going for shadow silver Speedlines. It's like a dark silver...

Thats a good guide, but how many 400ml cans of paint/primer/lacquer will be needed for 4 wheels?

I wanted her to go with 'day glow pink' aka.. neon pink and just do the whole wheel one colour, or spray them white but get the panelshop down here to mix some pink fleck in with the laquer

Will I need special primer for plastic? Or will regular primer be ok?

You can get primer specific to plastic but regular wouldn't cause any harm i would imagine
