johnnyknox Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 It does look sweet mate..but yes..tell DAVE if you are not happy with any of it. Having seen it in the flesh I can honestly say those pics don't really do her any justice. Those lights and gold badge look amazing!!!!! ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrHanky Posted July 26, 2007 Author Share Posted July 26, 2007 Just spoke to Dave who did the respray and he has been very good about it. Once he has finished with Johnnyknox's car he will put anything right that I see as a problem. Like I said before though there is only really the bonnet and 1 or 2 minor things. That has made me feel a lot better as I was expecting the worst to be honest. Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well done and get well soon so you can enjoy it. hopfully the sun will be shining and you can show it off. Thanks Kieran, I am very very happy with it I am still a little shocked that it has changed to be honest. I have never done anything with any of my previous cars (except an after market exhaust on my Civic Type R), and a respray is something that I never thought I would be able to bring myself to do, due to the cost. Just a little sunshine would be nice at the minute Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr keef Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 Dont worry about the orange peel effect mate this just needs a little light wet n dry and a repolish and it will come straight out,not a big issue mate,let him know its a 10 minute job.

Thanks mate. When I spoke to the guy at the garage he said that if it is still like that after a polish then it probably just needs a really fine compound on it to bring it out. So it will be sorted one way or the other. Cheers Jurgen, may get that done one day but im not sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SupraStar 3000 Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 Well done mate. Thats stunning and a great colour choice too Dave is a really approachable guy and doubt would have any issues sorting the hood. Make sure you bring it to the next local event mate. Glad you getting better too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad you getting better too. Cheers matey Yer Dave is a really approachable guy. I guess I was just bracing myself for the worst as I have heard so many story's of people having problems with respray's after the job is done etc. But he is being very good about it which is nice. Best thing about resting at the minute is that Vic won't let me wash and wax my car so she is going to do it for me this weekend You going to the next Bubble Inn meet at all? If weather is good me, Cable, Vicki will be going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
