very nice mate, you should have stayed in the bomex club though :wink:

Nice lines, looks very clean.

Do those wings actually bulge out or is it just the impression they give, all in all mate the car looks stunning, very envious :mrgreen:

Looking at the pics again, only thing I aren't keen on is the black on the front wings.

Would look better colour coded in my opinion.

other than that :thumleft:

Looking good fella! :thumleft:

What colour are the rims? I think they're the colour I think they are :-k painted silver with polished lip if they're not already that would be lovely.

That made, no sense.

pmsl

that didnt make sense

there a dark/gunmetal grey type colour.

agree with the front wings.

annoyed to be honest as i ordered normal fully painted wings, because of all the hassle going on with the wings they said they would give me the carbon upgrade free. i asked for pictures before i got them but didnt get any and not really happy the carbon bit unpainted.

also its not a great colour match as its a slightly different shade of white so will probably get them resprayed anyway.

the colour shade takes a while blend in mate, just keep cutting compount the rest of your car but leave ya wings and they do match just takes a month or 2, my bumper didnt atr first but its spot on now after winter hit it :roll:

the wings are darker than the rest.

cant see how cutting back the rest of the paint work will help with that.

Nice car bud.
Paint wise it is not really wise to have parts painted when they have not got your car.I have tried quite a few paint suppliers And I have only ever had 2 lots off paint which matched the car.

Most of the time I take the fuel cap etc to the paintshop were they try and match it.But it ussually end up having to blend it in.

IE:if it was a wing you would paint and laquer the wing,but you would also flat the door,blow the colour in to it (about half way) then totally laquer the door.

That way you do not see the shade difference.But silver is a naff colour to do this too,as you can always see the blow in if you got the eye for it.
