Nice looking LCR here 
In your signature, what tyres are you using there? Also, is the drop on the car that's in your sig, with the SPAX springs?

Lovely car mate, the wheels and the stance make all the difference. It looks hard as nails, seeing yours make me want to get my wheels painted and get a suspension kit.
So whats next in the agenda?

Cheers mate. In the end I used Halfords high temp aerosol paint. Went with Matt black, but i would say its more grey than black. Gives a nice finish. About £6 a can. Prep wise used wet and dry 1200 grit.
Used about 5 coats of paint. Couple of areas needed flatting out during coats where i went heavy. End result is perfect.
Pics with the Lightning are from Bruntingthorpe proving ground. Nice backdrop for car pics
Im still not sure if im gonna paint or polish mine yet,mmmmmmm
Yeah thats pretty cool, iv got tornados i can use for back grounds but meh they suck,lol

Polished looks awesome, but takes little bit of maintenance to keep on top of the shine....
Paint is the easier option
Why don't you try crackle paint, that looks very nice, quite oem.
You in the RAF???
