I'm having serious doubts about my car. As much as I like it, now that I've had to move out and have little cash free at the end of each month, I can't warrant giving it a spray job. And because there are different shades of grey on it I don't feel motivated to make any other changes to it as it will be pointless.

MOT is due in April. Tax is due end of May. If it doesn't pass it's MOT for any reason I'll be getting rid of it and will be car-less until I can afford another. Unless someone wants to take it off my hands now. :lipsrsealed:

What even if it fails on a couple of bulbs!?

If it passes, spray it satin black then!  :cool:

See, I considered this, but not sure I'd like it or not.

Recent pics?  :huh: I think it could work well, at least as a stop gap until I had some free cash to get a proper spray job (if I took it that far).

Mate, that looks really good actually! I think it would work, especially on polished wheels.  :wink:

Look even better with your wheels on TBO.... as soon as the weather clears up you could get this done in no time for feck all just in time for summer and shows!  :cool:  do it and i'll park next to you!  Mines only taken so long as I have been doing it in bits and lots of repair work to the body kit etc.

That looks sweet! :cool:

remember you can always use different colours, such as a satin grey or any colour you choose!

I say do it, or i'll slap you at the RR day!  :grin: :grin:
