colour coded spoiler and skirts or not?

[SRlew]

right then im giving the car a re-spray next month in flame red with colour coded bumpers, but carnt decide if i should spray the side skirts and spoiler red or black/grey.
im doing the wheels black aswell.
i want either vinyl or a black strip sprayed on the tailgate aswell (SR style)

Leave them unpainted especialy if your getting new vinyl :o

[probert_nova]

yeah i'd say leave em unpaited but i think it looks better with the bottom of the car sprayed anthracite, check my feature.

[SRlew]

:x probert that looks wicked mate!!

my original plan was to get mine back to standard like yours probert, but then when i baught the GTE bumpers (red) i thought id do it all red.

but now im back to square one :?

now im thinking i should do the bumpers and skirts in anthracite again.
thats what my original plan was..... make it look standard with subtle mods like the skirts, mirrors and maybe a smooth tailgate or just the handle :?

i really dont know now!

Get some 1 to photo shop it and give you an idea of the diffrent styles :wink:

[SRlew]

right, im thinking of leaving the spoiler and skirts, doing the bumpers red but leaving the rear bumper lip grey, then if i ever want to go to grey bumpers again i can just spray my old ones anthracite. sounds like a plan to me :D

cheers

[SRlew]

its just a square one my brother put on it when it was his, thinking of trying to get a motorbike one on it if i can, cause i qiuet like the square one on the back aswell, somthing a bit different.

when he did it i thought it was gunna looke dodgey but, when it got ut n i liked it.

[SRlew]

[F188CHG]

i'd stay keep the bottom half all gray/mattt back, everyone colour codes these days. or just leaves the bumpers grey,

[RobWeaver]

rover hurricane grey is a closer finish to original SR coloring :) if that is indeed what you are aiming for, i have done my rear in it, and a rear on my old glacier white SR :) personally, i would color code all, and leave skirts n bottom section of bumpers grey, or leave the whole lot grey...2 tone style :) color coded bumpers AND grey vinyl is a no no in my modding book :lol:
