Nanglebadger Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 can i make a suggestion????when your havin the kit painted, wot about colour coding the door handles??? i just dont like naff back plastic interupting lush paint work!Phil. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jules-B Posted May 11, 2008 Author Share Posted May 11, 2008 indeed you can make a suggestion!Dont worry i was thinking it myself.. i might start tommorow as i have a can of the toyota white...When i do get the kit fully sorted and have the MOT, what do you guys think of the idea of smoothing in the rear and front splitters?Jules Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scutch0 Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 personally, i love the way the jdm stuff looks like its a 'addition' to the existing bodywork, so i'd personally leave it... plus when i made my old bumper for my n/a i smoothed eveything in... and it was forever cracking, and i will never do it again because of that reason!

SiCaln Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 would agree with scutcho, id leave the door handles too Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nanglebadger Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 smoothing it all in could look pretty smart man, but crackin would concern me if it has happened to Rich.also, ignore sicaln, he knows not of what he speaks!!!! darn fool!!! get those door handles colour coded!!!! naff faded black trim plastic IS FOR THE LOSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOSS!!!!Phil. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jules-B Posted May 12, 2008 Author Share Posted May 12, 2008 hahawell due to the lack of funds i wont be getting it smoothed in!Although got a much better quote for the repairing bodykit and the spraying, this time was around 500£ instead of 800-2000Im going to go ahead and do the door handles, think it will look alright!!If not, i can spray them black again!
