seatbelts from a Roland Garos?Not really a fan of those in combination with astor (they go well with diablo though) Nice project nonetheless! I think the speedlines would look awesome in anthracite with a polished lip! ________________________________________ Team WheelwhoreTeam Limited Edition Astor 306 Francorchamps RIP Virtual Blue 208 GTi quote: I this place.

Just a few pics from yesterday after I washed it. I haven't flatted or buffed it yet because I'm still waiting for the paint to settle/shrink. I won't put the rubstrips or other trim on until I've finished buffing.![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ________________________________________ |

Thanks Matt. It's surprising how much the colour changes in different light. It sometimes looks blue, other times purple with no metallic and then it can look graphite grey. It confuses the hell out of me! ![]() ________________________________________ |

Is that finish straight from the gun then? Very very impressive if so Dan. Are you a painter by trade then?________________________________________ 1999 Astor Grey GTi-6 OEM+ (now gone...)2004 Aegean Blue 206 GTi 180 (also gone...) 2006 Skoda Fabia vRS in Sprint Yellow honestly3k wrote: Do you wrestle for a living matt?

Yes its gun finish Matt. It has a lot to do with the gun and the air pressure to be honest. I'm using a SATA 4000 B Digital HVLP spray gun. Air pressure at 2 bar for lacquer and 15% thinners for a nice finish. ________________________________________ |

Cars have always been a massive part of my life though. My dad has always had classic cars for a hobby and since I can remember I've always helped him out with things. I suppose a lot has rubbed off on me. ________________________________________ |

The only problem at the moment is that I work full time and would find it difficult to make time to do a thorough job. A full respray from start to finish would take 5 days. ________________________________________ |
