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:

NO shady, thank me!  :laugh:

Roller the Matt paint on, it's so easy and cheap that if you don't like the colour you can change it without a headache. Another cool thing is touchups always look spot on!

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:

Okay Wayne, you've made your point but I'm not taking your opinion on board. :afro:

No change then  :smiley:

You have a saleable car at the moment if you really need to for what ever reason, yet you willing to matt paint it on a budget  :rolleyes:

I think you're right, it could look great in that grey. Would be able to keep the trim then as a contrast.
