Murd 55 Posted October 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2007 You must have spent a bit of time doing that, looks great! :y: ah yes indeed. couldnt find a paintbrush so i had to mask the letters up. so i actually had to cut them out then clean tiny bits where black paint got on the letterin with some petrol :dance: but yeah it looks way better. next i have to spray my window wipers. :cool: and my real light surrounds. but i don't kno if to go for black or chrome..

Clapped out Posted October 9, 2007 Report Share Posted October 9, 2007 Personally (in my opinion), id go for the black instead of the chrome, the chrome wouldn't stand out that much up against the silver paint? just an idea! :y: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfunkt Posted October 9, 2007 Report Share Posted October 9, 2007 you gotta get some of the ke35 coupe tail-lights...look much smoother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JiP Posted October 9, 2007 Report Share Posted October 9, 2007 Really?? I much favor the Late hardtop lights that she currently has. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfunkt Posted October 9, 2007 Report Share Posted October 9, 2007 the late model ones have too much 'nothing' around the lights, and they're recessed, but jut out at the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murd 55 Posted October 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2007 i think ill go with the ones i have and maybe the black I'm thinking. just sanded back my windscreen wipers and given them a coat of paint they were bad they were like poka dot cos the paint was all coming off. thank god for engine paint. that stuff wont come off :y: but yes I'm definately favouring the black atm as my body kit is black and the new splitter coming will probably be done black too. and then the new bumpers will be a nice little addition of chrome.

Murd 55 Posted October 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 well my dad bought it for $400 after his motorbike was stolen out the drive... then rents spent money fixin it up for my 16th birthday so total spent roughly $1000-$1500 i guess. on my 16th i gave dad the $400 he paid initially for the car. so i paid $400 for a $1000 car :y: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murd 55 Posted October 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2007 (edited) today once again i got bored and attacked my car with a bit of paint =] i need to get down to a high pressure cleaner and give it a good clean up and then respray the radiator better but it was just a 5 min spray on that to make it look a little nicer on the eyes. same with the air filter thing. here is a picture. will get more once i have cleaned it up better =] i did the blue bits today as well. put a little more time into them. there is a wiring mess as well. too many fancies :D remote central locking alarm stereo + sub and also featured next to the battery is my magic box with a button to start the engine.

demuire Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 (edited) Interesting bodykit. Certainly not a fan of the front splitter (I think it's too bulky), but the rear spoiler I think suits the car. It certainly has that "80's boxy muscle car" look :y: Very neat and tidy anyway :P Edited October 15, 2007 by demuire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
