Trouble being that he needs the whole kit spraying Aztec Gold!!

Charlie I honestly can't believe you purchased a whole kit without knowing how much spraying was gonna cost!! lmao

(Oh & cheers for the help with my DV hose)

[Charlie_raf]

no worries with the dv bex

i will store the kit untill a time i can afford to fit it.

it was a one of chance to get it and you cant turn these chances down now can you

[BeckyG]

Your certainly a unique person Charlie!! lmao

[Charlie_raf]

lol dont know whether thats good or bad????

i think its good lol

[BeckyG]

I couldn't possibly answer that Charlie! lmao

[Charlie_raf]

haha

well i got to phone bodytone back on monday to speak to owner about doing the car as i am selling it as much as i can saying it is going to be a completely unique car and if they want to take on the project will they be able to do it a t a cost for advertising rights lol

well you never know till you ask do ya??

[astra_sri_andy]

You'll have to have 'BODYTONE' in big white letters stuck to your back window, that's what they've done in the past.

It's only unique in the fact a 888 bodykit doesn't belong on a 1.8 Coupe lmao

[Charlie_raf]

it will also be unique in the fact that it has never been done in gold either.

and how big we talking lol???

[astra_sri_andy]

The whole width of your back window big.

It's never been done in Gold because 888 Coupes never came in Gold lmao

Like I've said before, you'd have been better off sorting out some Irmscher kit or something else more original.

What happens if you damage some part of the kit and can't get hold of replacement parts cos you don't have a V5 with 'Astra 888' on it?? It's not as if these bits crop up on Ebay as 2nd hand parts very often.

[Charlie_raf]

well it will be worth it in my eyes when i pull it off

[jamied]

come on stop taking the pee it will be a unique car in that colour and yes the 888 comes with a 2.0T thats where jamie will come in next year i hope but he dont know about it yet so shhhh dont tell him lol

hummmmm....i would watch this...job might be good but the money knocked off for advertising might not be much...also have you asked, where will it be advertised? how long for? am i going to have a big logo in my windows or stuck to the doors/bumper? at the end of the day its your car and if you can't pay for the paint job in one go then don't 'sell your body'.

Kits can be fixed..hell bring it up and i will have a look..get a few miggers along and make a day of it..as for paint, have a word with my local paint supplier..get a few ltr's made up and spray the bumpers when we know the things will fit. Don't think a perfect job can only be done at a custom body fitter...you will feel so much better if you have done the job yourself and saved a few quid.
