have seen a silver to gold flip which is different, is pretty suttle tho! most flip paints seem to be dark colours really

not sure if i am good enough to attempt a flip never mind chrome........lol
after all i am only a chef really, not been tought anything! all i have done on my cars is self tought, nore sure i could teach myself how to paint chrome paints! only just getting the idea of flips! sounds pretty straight forward tho, time will tell
otherwise was just thinking of summit simple like seat ibiza kiwi green colur with black wheels and detailing, i just light bright coloured cars!

the vx..................ummmmm! its still there, i just dont have the heart to touch it, the bodywork is horiable to work on and i dont think i can afford to insure it also which dont help me wanting to get it done, need to spend bout another 1k to get ALL the parts to finish it, i WILL have it done for the summer and astra will go before then also! hopefully i will get it on the road and have a nice handling fast car!

Hydraulics were mine! They are 90% sold at this moment in time.
I do have a gorgeous set of 20's that will do you a killer deal on as need rid of them to get the carbonfibre front end for the civic ordered.
