Idrees Posted August 14, 2007 Author Share Posted August 14, 2007 Cheers guysYou mean the rear stock Toyota badge in Black?I might spray the mirrors today seen as though I'm mixing paint for the bumper.. Not sure what I'm gonna do with them yet but I'll keep yous posted! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mikey Jay Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 Go for a devil horned Toyota logo in Black Would be funky Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zippeee Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 A few more shotsAnybody guess that this car is a Cat C write off? It was rear end damage...Car looking very nice.Apologies if you already know this (feel free to tell me to shut up lol) - did you know that you can get the Cat C or D removed from a car's history if you get a check and certificate from a particular company who do chassis alignment once all the work's done (think there's one in Royston - there are 4 or 5 across the UK) - think it costs about £200. They put it on a jig and check it with a fine tooth comb. Worth it IMO. I'm trying to find the company name but not having much luck at the moment!!EDIT:www.autoligninspections.co.uk Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted August 14, 2007 Author Share Posted August 14, 2007 Cheers for that, didn't know there was such thing! £200 seems pretty reasonable too, I may go for it at some stage. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Idrees Posted August 14, 2007 Author Share Posted August 14, 2007 Nevermind!Tiny updateGot the mirrors all prepped and plastic primed, couldn't be arsed to mix such a small amount of paint so I'm gonna paint them with the bumper.And got the lip fitted to the bumper, all ready to paint. The lip sits about 3mm too low on one side though so I need to rip off all the sealant and get it perfect Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Idrees Posted August 15, 2007 Author Share Posted August 15, 2007 Cheers for the comment Phil, look what I did to the mirrors in your favour... Todays work...These rear plastic panels really could not stay the light Grey colour...Gloss Black FTW! Doing alot more of the interior, pics when done.Then Bananza patiently awaits some of her parts to be sprayed and fittedFitted her ears...And her new bum..Just to see how the tints are gonna look...The VTS driver's jaw dropped! I wish my car was as low as his from the back (Hes no chav, he bought the car like that because its quick!) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
