hey guys im considering getting the car resprayed, i was thinking of painting it black just to be different. if anyone has any pics of black vl commondoors that'd be sweet. cheers

Be prepared to have the car %110 perfect prep wise, or everything will show up.

i used to have a black VL mate, just one word of advice.. DO NOT cheap out on the paint job.. be prepared to pay 5K +++

Probably not what your after but hey its a Black VL. As old mate above said make sure it is 110% straight other wise it will look crap. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

thanks for the quick response, yeh i was looking at getting it done properly by a professional. i just need some help deciding to do it or not. lol yeh ive just got a berlina thanks anyway, any more pics would be great. cheers

That pic makes me want to put red trim in mine!

Unless you like running around cleaning it every other day, i would'nt do it. My one and only VL was Black, i'd spend hours cleaning it, and bang some clown would touch the car, and i'd have finger prints all over it, and yep they show up like Dog's balls, and that's if it did'nt Rain, Dirt rd, or any thing else you can find . They look grouse, just a C*** to keep clean Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

yeah my black vl was a dog to clean.. the one above that i posted just needed the chrome around the car (bumpers and side moulds) and it would be one of my all time fav cars..

mine do it you wont regret it. oh lockie do it go the red trim but get s2

You have to wash it twice a week, if I was to do a black VL project it would have an Aero or half Walky kit to get the most out of that black gloss.
