Paul they look mint I've been busy primmering stuff today and sanded 2 more wheels Also order a mocal 16 row cooler tonite, going have some fun mounting it maybe behind the number plate, then I'll cut some circles behind where the number plate sits obviously try not to cut though the mounting holes so I can put the plate back for road use. ________________________________________ Rallye build: 11 November 1998 - a WednesdayTeam rallye,built for track ----Click this if you like rallyes Rallye dead Secret Team Astor... |

Paul thats really impressive for a rattle can job.i start to use zinc an etch primers instead of using plastic primer for everything  Yeah the gunmetal idea sound good I think I d re do the rear calipers to match aswell. ________________________________________ Rallye build: 11 November 1998 - a WednesdayTeam rallye,built for track ----Click this if you like rallyes Rallye dead Secret Team Astor... |

thx but its no big dealTip, put the cans in a bowl of very hot water, so the paint inside gets warm, i use the hairdryer from the misses. And make sure the calipers are not that cold, i warmed them up nicely with the hardryer. Apply nice and even coats, put the decal on, and then a few layers of clearcoat, should come out perfectly. Just take your time and let that paint harden in between. Ive got the caliper outside now in the sun for 2 days already |

So after getting a few hours a night on car bits this week I have made a little bit of progress I got them for a tenner on bay received today, booth 52mm 1 is volts other is oil temp  Fits nicely into the stereo slot, going to relocate stereo lower down below the main dash.  Finished the rear quater panels, maybe laquer them again but I'll be covering them in sticker from the track days I'll be doing so don't need to be perfect  Accidently done this graphite grey instead of black, looks the nuts though   Actually clean it today got sick of spraying things, nearly done the 1.2's.never again, f**k than they the worst wheels to sand/paint    ________________________________________ Rallye build: 11 November 1998 - a WednesdayTeam rallye,built for track ----Click this if you like rallyes Rallye dead Secret Team Astor... |

Good mate!remember you need to spray to fair amount of laquer from a rattlecan, especially clearcoat... first 2 coats not that heavy, after that you can do some nice heavy coats, My brembos are nice and thick in the clear, 1 can for one caliper! |
