Chequered Roof

[Nutkin]

Just wodnering peoples opinions.

I love it so its staying no matter what but still intregues me what others think, so here is a poll

 

[CupraTurbo....]

that looks mint mate, been thinkin about doin it 2 my car but didn kno wa it would look like. gotta get the roof re done anyway cos i got the dreaded onvi fading and peeling laquer. roughly how much should i b expectin to pay for that then mate?

 

[brad1]

that looks awesome on silver, im very tempted depending on price

 

[Fl@pper]

just had some black vinyl arrived to try it all down my roof

would look really good with later/smoother bumpers and side mouldings gone

 

[brad1]

the onlt bit that would annoy me, makes me look a bit autistic is the fact the sqaures down one side are smaller than on the other side, they would have to be same size all over if you get me, symetrical in other words lol

 

[Fl@pper]

was just returning to the pic to have a look if it was central

just tell em all the mini ones are and you wanna be unique lol

 

[MrBen2k7]

should of continued the chequers onto the spoiler at the end of the roof.... just looks silly from above..

 

[Nutkin]

Im gonna paint the spoiler gloss black solid anyway

mirrors are done now in lambo black.

I have the cupra kit to go on too

I know the top isnt that even but i have this thing about doing everything myself, and considering it only cost me £30 to get the squares cut i think i did a pretty good job

cheers for comments guys

You go for all that excellent respray work in an excellent colour to cover it up with the automotive equivalent of a tramp stamp ???

Don't do it!!


Sorry to P on anyone's chips about the roof checks, but as has been said....... OK for mini's if you must but not for a Leon. Soooo wrong! Also, with it not being central on that car it really looks like a home made bodge job. Worth a try but it don't work. Sorry to be harsh matey.

like i said, i cant see the pic.

the car i got my colour from (renault megane) has the chequered flag on the front panel of the car. so i thought it might be the equivalent...


ETA 1hr 28mins to confirm stupidity of what i almost got myself into!

I had the daylight lights on mine ages ago, but they were properly done by myself and smoothed into the foglight area.

but one fell off at the nurburgring so i left em off, bumpers get changed soon anyhow.

I think your choice of colour is excellent mate but don't go overdoing the Renault theme!!
