You going for a full repaint in dark grey then rather than silver?

[sladey]

Yep - in slate grey.

After the works have been done 90% of the car will need new paint anyway, I fancy a change, and a flat grey will be easier to paint than metallic silver,

That's mighty fine!

That colour scheme is going to look great and I like the signature lettering to keep it a characterful car.

You should change your username to Slatey after this is all over.

Cool - maybe change the decklid script to something really original though?

NOBROT ?

Love that! , it'll look awesome......

....and still distinctive!

[dragonfly]

That looks stunning

[grannysmith]

That colour scheme looks really good. Similar to how it once was, just better...same as the metal work.

Thanks for that Jon - you actually told me that in Germany and I haven't forgotten it - it's one of the best tips I've heard.

There are parts of the German trip that I can't (or don't want) to remember!

I like the accent on the wheels, thats really nice. In actual fact i the whole thing looks nice.

You plan on doing it yourself?

Wheel detail looks a bit Vauxhall Adam?
Rest looks fab to me.

That's the plan. Probably wont get round to the respraying till next spring.

I also like the wheels thing - it was Chris' idea but I know Haasad did it on his.
