3 things.

1. Bad idea trying to catch Stuart out. He will now be watching every one of your posts like a man posessed!

2. ETA is an abbreviation, not text type, so you were wrong to pick him up on it anyway.

And

3. This is a project thread, and we would rather you didnt spam it :)

Thanks.

Well my original plans were to have the paint done over the xmas period, but alas with such cold weather there were a few jobs here at work that needed to be done whilst such frozen ground posed an advantage, so thought i better do these said jobs as i have been doing the car during works time etc etc.

Nether the less i managed to find a couple of days to get the first primer coat on and rubbed down followed by a second final coat. Only a few pics but to say i am pleased is an understatement. Tried to read up on setting the gun right and understood none of it lol so just grabbed the gun and made sure paint flew out of it. The end result was no runs and a good equal smoothish cover which for the high build primer i was chuffed at.

The quality of the pics is kind of crap due to the poor indoor lighting and being on my phone but you get the idea. Thats the easy bit done, now i have to do the scary bit in the next few weeks and put the top coat on :wtf: lol

I know i said i am chuffed with it so far, but i still feel the finished result will be truly shocking............perfect for a track slag :thumb:

looking good that! what paint you using for the top coat 2 pack?

Looking good Dan, i have the same wheels in 7J, unfortunaltey they don't fit under my rear arches :(...

yep i am spraying with 2 pack, its all abit of a no mans land as far as i am concerned as i have never done it and have noone to show me but thats the fun of it.

As regards the wheels thats why they are still kind of rare on the nova's due to very limited supplies for the correct offset/size unless you fanny about with them. I was lucky with my set as i have gone abit off the cuff with offset and size due to the wide arches, but in this size they are still hard to come by with the correct fit requirements

I reckon you done a good job there mate, all looks good to me, and fair play to having a blind go at it, i would love to be able to have the chance to do the same on mine, but i have no where to spray!
