ps. for anyone that doesn't believe you can get flame pink back to red. my car had been out in the sun for 10 years, & then got black overspray on it.
Farecla G3 & lots of elbow grease followed by red colour magic & it is as good as a new one, apart from the scratches.

looks like new :cool:

I know. it scared me. I finished it at about 9.30 the other night, then in the morning with a clear sky it looked stunning.


tbh, there are so many knocks & scratches that once you are about 6ft away, it doesn't look so good. I deliberately didn't do side piccy's cos the doors are getting replaced asap & some git put a styling stripe on with some serious glue that I can't remove yet.

fair enough.

i also have a predator spolier to go on. It is red. views on painting it bumper grey.......

SR wraparound would go loads better, same colour as the bumpers onbviously

no, i don't like them. I had one on my old one & it was a git to fit straight

i'm sticking with the predator. & it only cost me a tenner.

bargain then, ive had a predator one on an old one, makes a refrshing change from GSi i suppose as its not actually that much bigger
