my vento convertion done with a few pics
« on: 09 July 2011, 20:48 »
ok so i joeyed some vento headlights the other day.
gash,s grill has now been taken apart and had bottom metal bit wrapped and painted the grill part.
picked up my vento bonnet this morning and wrapped it this afternoon and is a perfect job if i say so myslef  :cool:
now all fitted to the car.
removed red pinstripes and got rid of all red.
some of you are going to hate it but im loving it.
pics are abit crap as my digi cam batteries died so used phone.
will post some decent pics up tomorrw

looks good, what is the wrap, matt?

i would have kept the red pinstripes, made it different from the rest!

no the wrap is some ultra realistic carbon looking stuff. very thick vinyl. had to realy heat gun it so curve it.
them pics are realy crap.

it has that thing that makes your eyes go funny when you look at carbon and move around.

Looks good, the red helped break the black up however.

yeah i no what you mean. but the red pinstripes looked realy odd with it.
my plan is to put a coloured pinstripe in the trim again like i had it before.
thinking about doing a diferant colour though this time.

any ideas what colour would look good?

Looks good that does, and i prefer it without the stripes, or how about yellow stripes with yellow headlight bulbs (obsessed with yellow lights at the moment).
