Scoobs new look
 
Not quite finished yet but its definatly getting there so from this:

To this:

Now this:

Well ive spent the last few weeks colour sanding and polishing pannels after my mate's been spraying them, then he came round last week and we sprayed the car, he did most of the spraying but he let me have a go and i dont think i did too bad lol Then rebuilt the scoob and spent what felt like an eternity coloursanding and buffing. Definatly been worth while and looks alot better than matt black. Not sure if the spoilerless look is going to stay and ive got another bootlid with a spoiler that im still coloursanding, and the white wheels are only on there untill my new tires arrive then the black wheels are going straight back on.

Heres some more pics:

Its two pack paint, The bumpers, skirts, grill, boot lids, bonnet and other little bits were sprayed in my mates garage then colour sanded and polished back up by me. The rest of the car was done outside by my mate and myself then again rubbed down and polished back up. The finish isnt perfect and theres still some orange peel in places where the paint went on abit thick but apart from that its not too bad and im happy with the finish :-)

Wow. I lost track of this thread for a bit and last I saw it it was matt black. I'm stunned by how it looks now its gloss black and those wheels and the despoilering are the perfect finishing touches. Good work Andy it's looking stunning.
