repainting your car again bro??

 

[fahmi757]

bro...change colour or still stick to the existing colour?

 

[insomniac]

Respraying the whole car but sticking to the same colour. Quite like the colour and its the only other thing that would fit a beige/black interior.
Had a couple of scrapes here and there, one small scratch on the boot lid and an unfortunate incident with a kembara where my rear arch was knocked into.

All small things but you know lar "sedikit-sedikit lama-lama jadi bukit"... so high time for a respray.

Next week or the week after. Depends how long the rim refurbishment takes.

Awesome progress bro. Love the rims! Keep us posted.

Spraying at a shop in sungai buloh. Name is Kim Keong Motor... been going to them since college days.

Decent pricing and workmanship is not bad. Good thing about them is their colour matching is quite spot on when spraying just a specific panel.

Today went to check out the new paint job... all painted and polished just waiting on some smaller stuff to be done.
Replacing the old rubber seal around the rear windscreen and replacing some other small items. All small small wear and tear stuff.





Half the car has been shadowlined... definitely prefer this much more than the chrome trims. Now its to wait for the rest of the car to get put back together. Can't wait to get my car back!!

Looking good bro. Was it difficult to install the shadow line?

 

[insomniac]

Not that difficult but have to slowly remove and install. There are some youtube videos providing instructions.

Car's not ready yet... still waiting on some small stuff to arrive and pasang before i take it back home.
So in the meantime.... my dreams are filled with the below and the hope that bro Haywire can successfully get it working for me.

Found an old pic... my car with some cf style wrap interior trims that i got off bro Vixx. Not bad... but i'm itching for some piano black trims.
