mine sort of works the wrong way round. it was better when i got it than it is now. Took my wheels off to let my mate borrow cos i've lost ma license and the passenger door got kicked by some drunk and is fucked. i've got a new door waitin to go on.

my door got kicked in by some twat (know who it was tho) so i was driving round with a red door (got a second hand one, but it was immaculate! ?50 was better than ?220 for brand new too) since i thought it pointless to have it resprayed, when a few weeks later i'd be having a full respray/bodywork done.

But people made fun of me for that for ages. They didnt know i was intending on having it all done tho.

[Neil.]

thats the worst thing i hate about modding over time, if it looks out of place for one day and someone see's it, it'll make them think what a crap car, thats why i like to get all of my things done at once so ppl can see it finished rather then half done.

[wisewood]

personally i think if you are prepared to invest a few thousands in your car in one go then surely its worth investing 200 quid in a banger to run around in so nobody sees the car you are working on till its complete.

[pickle]

wht i think im gona do now wise .while my car is fucked, but there are so many sitter to run abot it, but i think the ultimate is the fiesta.

LOL!! Cheers m8, but it's far from being the nicest there!!!

Anyway, as for the wheel colour, I don't have the code, I just asked the guy in the bodyshop to spray the Subaru metallic grey and that's what I got!!!
:wink:

I'll get my brother to bring his fat arse round one day with his digi camera and I'll get some more pictures of it then I'll stick it in the gallery.

[RJM25R]

I was waiting for some parts that never arrived and i lost my rag and broke it. I have a bad temper!

Shame - that car was mint!
