its like a garage tradition now lmao, me and brian were like kids at christmas when we shot the orange on his manta, we waited all of 6 minutes before we needed to see the contrast with the white lmao

[Benn]

cheers, and yeah, last time i used a ****ty suction fed gun, witha crap tip, this time the devillbiss, difference is night and day, thats the whole reason for the repaint tbh

Good gun, good finish. Only use the best.

[lee303]

totally agree, had no choice last time though as brian hadn't bought his devillbiss so i could use it yetlmao

[jr@corsasport]

looks far to clean

[lee303]

i'm sure i'll find a way to dirty it up againlmao

pimping

[lee303]

well that is one option i guess, but julio is 'out of the game' nowadays apparently, and he was my best earner!

[William]

[jr@corsasport]

Ive seen him black to black bits on the nova, and clean the wheels, its only a small jump to start using a clay bar, and then go all vxr marc by puting qotes from the bible in the engine bay

[Benn]

puting qotes from the bible in the engine bay

Thats just funking wrong no matter what or by who.

[lee303]

lol, i dont think so somehowlmao
craig, its ok mate, i still have love for shonky looks and loud engines, i've just never been happy with the finish i got when i repainted after the coombe crash, so took this opourtunity to give it another go with a much better gun

[lee303]

righty, removed the rest of the masking today, and got on with refitting stuff like the lights and bonnet catches etc, looks great, even if i do say so myselflmao

then made a new rear bumper middle mount, so it hangs straight now and everything

then fiddled about with the lock stops and ride heights, and then refitted the front bumper

even found time to clean the bay a touch

so all thats left to do before germany is clean it really, all systems are go!

[spanishfly]

[LongLiveTheNova]

[lee303]
