oooh, touchy there about your dodgy work eh? its allright... It takes 5 minutes to take that chrome strip off from around the doors and makes it so much better of a job... locks... **** like that.. makes it so much nicer.. Just do it..NIKE

SCmatty just like it takes 5 mins to take off ur door handles and there rubbers but u chose not too mate look at the end of the day its all about choices!

i wanted them gold at the time. and if we go by what you say i have done it and know NOT to do it.. And also you didnt take off the chome strips... But you did do the same colour...

thanks hamoud, at last my door handles and rubbers arent the same color as my car

it dosnt make the handles so stand out.. i was going to do the backs gold and the fronts black so your eyes are fooled not to see the backs as much.... I forget to tell the body shop in the end..

Im sorry for starting **** but im sure it will look alot better if you do just that little bit more work.. I have seen photos of yours and it does look fairly nice. but a colour change will need alot more work... I pro spary job will allways look good and yours will also if you take half the steps they do. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

um hello mate, i dont class mysef as a pro, im doing this car the way HE wants it, with this advice u are supposedly giving me, do u consider urself as a pro or something, look at the front passenger corner of ur bar ffs !!

how much does it cost you all up mate? paint? its acryllic i take it?

nah im using 2pack and the paint all up costing him $550, thats hi-filler, color, reducers, hardeners and a new gun Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I am not a pro painted.. I am an apprentise capenter.... pro as in only form as income. Never sprayed a car in my life.

Painting a vl you'd think you'd pull off the moulds around the windows and tailights (even a monkey could do that)
