My OVNI yellow LCR- Resprayed!

Right, had this for nearly 2 weeks now.

Love it.


I spent a few hours the other day cleaning it.

Paint is faded but I thought that I'd make the best of what I have.
Excuse the crap photos- was using my phone- and it was just about to get dark




Here's a quick photoshop to show how I would've liked it to turn out:




And finally the engine bay:




yes- I know the coolant tank needs sorting out!



I reckon a remap, induction, kit 007p, tip and I'll be where I wanna be- excluding a respray .

Nice mate, before you go all out on a respray get the car 'mopped' or buffed first and see if that helps at all.

Coolant tank looks fine to me

I reckon it's beyond that.




I thought these would look nice- shame I've sold them









I really should get a better camera/use the flash- the car's faded but it looks better than in these pics!

Was just about to clean the engine bay today.

Took the cover off and found this:

Oh yeah, forgot to ask if anyone knows what type it is?

Time to go from 7 tone beige back to OVNI yellow










Can't wait till Monday!


What waxes and polishes do people use on their OVNI Seat to keep it looking gleaming?

I'm not sure if I'm brave enough to go green.
This pic (thanks to t32er) looks sweert though:






Might just settle for shiny grey...






Anyone ever used orange crush?

I'm looking forward to washing it and not sighing loads at the different colour panels.
