Colour Coding Splitters

Hi guys,

From the thread about smoothing the boot I noticed some of the cars had colour coded splitters. I'm undecided about doing this myself - are there any photos flying around of your cars?

Obviously it's a job of removing the splitters and spraying - will any old paint do or have you got anything you'd recommend?

I know Chris (surcalation) will link me to his site - but the gallery is broken!

Ta,

Alix

There's a guide on here somewhere for colour coding skirts and splitters, front splitter and side skirts come off, rear has to be done in situ from what i recall.

i admit fully colour coded looks lovely but practicality id be ruining it and needing it repainting every year just not worth it for my and it wouldnt loo half finished as there are so many other black bits on the car it looks blended in tbh imo

Well, show us some pics when it's done! The scrappy decided to close today because it's cold and wet. Was usually open a few hours on a Sunday though. Weird!
