I thought I'd see what all the fuss about with this silver malarky, so I re-sprayed my blue pride and joy this afternoon (during the footy results ad break).

I'm sorry, but I fail to see what all the fuss is about. I think it looks really really really naff.

Got to re-spray it back to blue now ....

Yeah… that's the trouble with silver

The trouble with Silver as Kinky has proven is that it looks too much like grey primer!

Red is good… Piedmont Red

Shude,

Quality job on the wheels - yes defo.

As for the colour ..... I think I prefer my original primer !

Quality job though. Nice one :bannana:
 
Nice metallic basecoat

Yes, this is indeed a very nice metallic basecoat, now all it needs is the blue colourcoat and the jobs a good un!
 
Just show's how important it is to get the job done right, amateurs :D - running for cover - very fast :D

Ok, with just the wheels though, I moved the rear one out about an inch to fill the arch better, if you fitted 17" AMG styling IIs this is probably how they would look :)

Bang Out Of Order

Shude,

That is well bang out of order.

I'm seriously considering grassing you up to the Admins and have your access removed this to this site.

I think it's utterly disgraceful that you do something which makes my car looks really cool and now, instead of intending on spending circa £150, I've now got to spend £600+.

My child is going to have to go without any new clothes or toys .... Mrs Kinky will have to do with a reduced clothes allowance of only £850 a month.

But what the hell - it looks awsome :rock:

:bannana: :bannana: :bannana: NICE ONE GEEZER :bannana: :bannana: :bannana:

P.S. - anyone got 17" AMGs for sale?
