Spray shack are very good, lots of my friends have used them for small bits as well, mainly on their clios though!

Take lots of pictures of your car and send them in the parcel so they can get the paint mix just right!

[anthonysjb]

Will do!

[anthonysjb]

Arches are done!

I'll post up a pic later, they've sent me a pic of them and they look great. (can't rehost the file online on school computers)

Wow they really do look great - get em fitted NOW!!!

[anthonysjb]

When they're here I shall. What's the easiest way to fit them? Haven't had a chance to look how the other ones fit on atm.

Next upgrade, centre exit chrome tipped exhaust. Current one looks so bad.

[Noah]

The standard ones will be fitted with rivets.

You can either rivet them or you can self tapper them, i'd go for riv nuts or rivets.

they look brilliant. car is gonna look amazing... next step is to de-white it (stripes roof wing mirrors) then it'll be ballsblazing

Not getting rid of the white, I really like it and it's how they were originally (trying to keep it close to standard spec). It should just look like a blue version of fattail's car with the new arches on.

And yeah I'll probably rivet them on then, will look at how the current ones attach to the shell tomorrow to see the length needed.

I think tasteful mods would work well on this. Some genuine cooper centre caps, a maniflow 1.75" side exit exhaust etc.

[iMurray]

aston filler cap, nice aerial, maybe change the bonnet badge to a different coloured cooper one

[anthonysjb]

Yeah, I'll probably do all those, maybe a twin pipe centre exit though as they do look pretty great. I'll also be removing mudguards shortly.

Noooo!!!!

Not a DTM exhaust. The worlds tackiest thing, and it looses more power than my 2.25" side exit! Seriously!

[anthonysjb]

Suppose I shouldn't then, but I really do want a nice chrome tip and a beefier sound, I love to drive through town revving it a bit and putting my foot down (adhering to speed limits) and turn heads!

[WillRunci]

DTM all the way mate. nothing tacky about it. nice maniflow bud will sound amazing. decide what will make you happy when you drive it. with respect to loss of power, id like to see figures to be honest. And if so I'm sure the difference wouldn't be noticeable.
