[jake]

[jake]

on the up,

i have found the previous owner,

map is an mtm map,,, never heard of them but think there expensive, may eventually stick cc on there, also the exhaust is piper not miltek,

car is now getting a full extreior respray, tempted to drop a tiny dust coat of pearl on there to gice it something special in the sun, kinda like this:

Yeh MTM do Audis etc. Not a good map by all accounts. At one time if you saw 'MTM' letters on the back of a car, you knew it was fast. But research suggests they are waay overrated.

 

[jake]

to be fair it drives quite well, and is pulling 200g/s up top, still as a custom code agent, it would be rude not too haha

....and the roof with the rear spoiler black!!!! and tinted windows!!!

 

[tyrer]

Bad news but if your being honest I reckon it would of always been needing a paint at some point being Onvi and the age you know you would of had to do it to make it perfect.

I reckon it's going to be OEM goodness

 

[jake]

Lol. I know I know. It will all be yellow. Not a fan of black roof with yellow cars.

Tbh prob scrap the pearl idea due to me not going into the door shuts.

Tomorrow will see the world quickest respray lol

Both bumpers will be painted on the car for colour, everything else will be stripped off.

With ovni yellow, the more coats you give it the yellower it goes, it's that opaque.

looking forward to seeing how this turns out jake.

 

[t0m]

Sorry to hear Jake, but then again hats off to you for going at it so soon!

I'm also a fan of keeping the whole car yellow and not a black roof on yellow. Looks smarter imo.

Hope it turns out well mate.

 

[jake]

[jake]
