Was this on ebay few weeks back, noticed one with mk2 clio rear lights!

Mark's is going to look pretty darn sweet Irmy Steinmetz gear and a nice subtle colour to finish.

Look forward to seeing more progress

some more pics, most of the small bits are all primed now, lots and lots of bit to rub down and get smooth now, then paint!!!!!

here are some pics of it now, off to spend some time with gf now or she may hurt me badly!!!! hehe

i did ask is she wanted to help mask the car up, but u guessed the answer! she did kindy help tidy shed up a little last night! was bit scared when she was carrying the expencive air dam and other things in one hand!!!!!!!!!

will get some pics of the corsa with saxo,clio lights, pics look of off it, exhaust over hangs about a foot, lol!!!!!

not sure if to sort it or sell it on as it is! didnt cost to much and if i did sort it and put bigger wheels and lowered it could be quite nice and make good ish money!! just not sure cos body work is in a bay way!

door shuts been painted by hand!!!! and the shine is non exsistant! white celulose orange peel i think the colour is called!!!

Top work,

given them planty of coats, only 2 on the bumpers cos they dont really need any primer just to get them same basecolour as the rest really!

right i been busy..............

last night got home at 10:30

masked the car up and then painted the primer on the mirrors, boot and the car!

then rubbed down all the parts i had painted earlier in the day!

this morning i have moved it all around, painted a shed full of parts and then rubbed the car down now and wiped over to get rid of most of the water!

off out now, here are some pics tho:-



















colour is very nice

there is no limit to the amount of primer so long as you let it flash off between coats. the idea is to get everything nearly perfect before primer so you don't need to put so much on to fill imperfections, keeps the costs down too
