Thats got to be the EASIEST detail you've ever done! As long as his car is up to its usual standard

You would think that. Hey even i thought that but it wasnt the easiest! Dont worry i told DK my thoughts lol.

I'v always tried my hardest to keep the car looking as good pas poss, but yesterday showed just how much silver paint can hide a lot of minor imperfection's.
This detail has been long over due, we've been talking about doing it for over a year
The good thing now is I have a good base to carry on.

Big thanks to Maz, the car looks really good

Thanks mate Theres a few small runs on them but they dont really notice unless the wheel is off and you look really close
The hubs need to be redone, I painted the rear one's silver.

I did my rear hubs in Hammerite silver on Friday. I wasn't sure when I bought the paint but seeing it on, it blends in nicely with the spacers and wheels. Got my decals the other day. Just need to find the time to do the fronts now. I will say that the Hammerite paint is rather thin and prone to running, but gives a great finish. I'll be amazed if I don't get a run or two...

If your useing a spray can just be really carefull covering up the rest of the car, I thought I'd covered mine pretty well but it still got through,

You've done an excellent job with the brembo's I was considering doing mine black with red brembo sticker but having seen yours I may have to keep them red now.

I was going to do mine Black with White lettering but I was worried they would blend in too much, Brembo's were made to be seen
When you do them make sure you cover the whole car really well, when Maz Detailed mine at the weekend we found loads of red overspray over the front of the car and the windsreen, I did'nt cover the windscreen but the rest was covered with a old sheet and loads of news paper and it still got through.

 

[shaun.]

where did you get your brembo stickers from mate?? and what paint did you use?

 

[D.K]

These are the one's I got,
