£20 to paint a car...

Eight £2.50 matt black rattle cans should just about cover it.

Only the doors and sills to go!

:smiley:

WOW!

Loving the stance, what a weapon!

You’ll have to get yourself a Darth Vadar outfit when its finished :sunglasses:

Your spraying it with spay cans yourself after spending all that money on it :open_mouth:

Yep.

I’m going to drive it like I stole it, and I’m bound to land in the odd gravel pit or clip a tyre wall on track.

I want it to be mechanically perfect, but look a bit like the mad max car.

:smiley:

Cool !
I might do mine :smiley:
Group buy on rattle cans anyone ??

Bargain…

ah what a shame, did u run out of money or something? i’ve only seen cheapo drift cars rattle canned, don’t think the gravel point has any validity, it’s a rare event on track days and even full on race cars have a proper paint job

i think thats why ronins car is so well received even though he’s so abrasive, his car always looks the finished article

anyways, when’s this badboy gonna be finished?

I never wanted a pristine car, I always wanted a car I can drive hard without worrying about damaging a shiney paint job. I only considered painting it properly because of other people’s opinions. In the end I decided to do what I want, not what others think I should do.

No not run out of money, I’m still working which is where all the money has come from, I didn’t take a loan out.

I want it matt black, not varnished, and dirty.

Each to their own eh.

Check this out …

lol, I remember a poll on seloc where you asked for everyone’s opinion on the colour so to be fair you’ve actively invited peoples opinions all along,

anyways, doesn’t make sense to me, you want your car to look shit cos if you paint it nice there’s a 1/100 chance that one day you’ll gravel it and it’ll end up looking shit, maybe hang a teddy off the back to complete the look

to be fair if it hits a ton in 8 seconds I’d hang a whole collection of them off the back

I asked other people’s opinions just out of curiosity.

I thought about all the different options but have decided to go with what I want.

I don’t get the teddy joke, is it funny?

Normally seen on Corsa’s, Saxo’s, Fiesta’s, etc attached to the rear towing eye. Guess its a yoof thing??

Oh, now I get it.

My apologies for not doing what is expected of me.

The irony is bud you’re doing exactly what is expected of you :crazy:

You’ve lost me again, what am I expected to do?

You want to see a teddy?

Will that make everyone happy?
