[Murdered LCR]

[widearch]

i do like the idea of pink lol maybe the same shade sumo power done there skyline, but i spose u got to think of re sale so perhaps satin black

 

[Murdered LCR]

do it black and you fail life lol dont be gay do it bright and in you face

what does re-sale value have to do with anything? If your modifying to keep the next owner happy then your doing it wrong. IMO

True dat

I dont plan on selling it so its all good,

No no hate Electric Orange,

i am thinking of something totally 'off the wall' tho

 

[Murdered LCR]

gotta be bright tho

 

[sirjimalot]

definately,

 

[Applemobile]

if you want something ''off the wall'' have a look at the American JDM scene. They are leading engine bay front IMO. People are painting space invaders themes, multi colours, heat reactive paint, checker, chromed, ect ect ect.

 

[Murdered LCR]

heat reactive paint would look rudeeeee

 

[cuprachrissy]

orange by far, close the poll now because all the others will look poop.

 

[sirjimalot]

thinking about gt3 orange

Hey, its looking good now!! im guessing its coming off the road soon for the new engine to go in!! really like the colour! you reckon you will be taking it to any shows this year then? bo good to see it in the flesh!

 

[sirjimalot]

its off the road now, doing the motor this week

 

[sirjimalot]

Just a quickie,

Engine is in and got it all wired and running yesterday, made my own loom in the end,

928's are in the bin, back to standard at the minute, i will see what comes along when i can afford it,

Slight delay which is swapping the throttle pedal from FBW to a cable mechanism, that being i cant get the existing pedal out without dropping the complete column,

Will keep you all updated

Thats a cracking colour choice, the back wheels are letting it down. I'm a fan of the porsche wheels. Get some pics up with them asap

 

[sirjimalot]

Thanks Thanks,

I do agree the wheels let it down but im stuck as to what to put on it, i just cant think of anything thats gonna finish it off!

Any ideas

I like the Porsche rims, they not happening?

 

[sirjimalot]

No no they look dump, they do the car no justice what so ever,. But like i said it was worth a try,

Any ideas??

 

[Becks]

Hmm, depends what look you are going for. Always thought these suit the thicker five spoke alloys, but maybe not the standard cupra wheels.

Random suggestion...
