Me personally id colour code it and do the handles at the same time.

Your fron tbumper inserts have been colour coded too..... are you going to keep them that way or replace with textured ones? Or do you plan on colouring them all?

Oh by the way, shes looking very clean ( no rot ) :dance:

TBH mate i dont like the look of the colour coded trims, i think they look better black, i wouldnt mind getting the door handles done though, just cant decide if i should get the spoiler done aswell, might get the skirts done too

yeah it is tidy theres no rust under neath, a little bit of rust on the edge of the arches and a bit of rust on the quater panel were theres a dent :(

i have actually been thinking about doing that, but the front bumper has got little bits of blue glitter in it

The side skirts will take a bit of a beating and could get chipped etc...door handles are easy, especially if you can get previously colour coded ones from a scrappy, it saves alot of prep time.

Do you have remote central locking? you can de lock at the same time to....

You could always just have the bottom half of the car done....

i have got remote locking ready to fit but i need to find someone to do the wireing cos when i tryed i f**ked it up :evil: (my mate works for bt so im sure he'll be able to do it :D just gotta talk him into doing it)

i would mind getting just the bottom half sprayed, think i might have to photoshop my car first so i can see what it would look like

as for de locking it, i can do that now because my locks dont work, the doesnt even turn in the lock :roll: :evil:

Looking nice and shiney m8, I also quite like the idea of doing the bottom half of the car the same as the front bumper.
