WinKE55 Posted March 18, 2008 Report Posted March 18, 2008 What colour did you decide to go? Any updates my dear? Quote
ke55_sr20turbo Posted March 19, 2008 Author Report Posted March 19, 2008 (edited) Ok. I give In. I was Going to paint it The Tango Orange from the Ford Focus but as it turns out someone already has done it. :y: :yes: :yes: So i had to re think. :no2: I also noticed that either pale colours (see Below) or candy colours (see above) look good on Corolla's. :yes: So after having a few colours picked out I have finally settles with one! :sob: I have chosen the Victory Yellow from a Renault Megane. It looks alot brighter in real life, ALOT BRIGTHER!! I found the colour whilst on the rad rollaz cruz december 9 2007 whilst parked at wollongong lol. I aslo found a rim I rather liked: The Performance Challenger Rims AKA Bathurst Rims. But My boyfriend and I have been looking around and found a place willing to make Simmons cheap! I think i'll be getting the FR's Gloss black Chrome ring or the FR 90's. But I'll get them Later. lol. I have recently just paid to get my dash re-apolsted black, looks very nice indeed. and i've just been respraying my dash gloss black and trying to put it back together. lol. Having much fun. My dad and I have also been thinking and have decided we are definatly going to do an engine conversion. My dad thinks a 2 L Pintara, 5 speed manual. Where as the Boy friend thinks differently. But I don't mind really cause whatever does end up going in there will kick ass! so.. Anyways... Just about to send door trim and front seats to re-apolstry place (X-Trim, Smeaton Grange) With the door trim i've been thinking. I'm going to get the corolla Symbol (the C with the 3 stars) put in the bottom corner of the front doors in white. about approx. 10-20cm x 10-20cm. were as everything else black. All Vinyle by the way but it has that texture that makes it look leather. So currently she is sitting in the shed naked. No engine no gearbox, no interior, no exterior, no wondows, no boot, and only half the dash. lol. poor thing Well i need to find the camera. lol. when i do i'll take lots and lots of pics for you's all. xx Edited March 19, 2008 by nyxvampire Quote
