used enamel paint from halfords to brighten up a few bits from engine bay

and these

How about a pic with them attached in the engine bay?

 

............you know you want to. ;)

thought I would wait till they dried tho :rolleyes:

in the bay

with pipes in place

and then I lost the plot and started on the interior.lol. Somebody stop me

Looks good though Jock. I think the painting the interior is starting to become popular.

not too bad for 9quid. looked at the specialist stuff 20 quid a tin and the recommend primer, colour and fixer.

 

Being tight must be in the blood,lol

Looks good mate.

I did the centre console panel like yours.

 

Only one thing though, you forgot to reconnect your turbo pipes ;)

Looks good Jock. I like the centre dash bit sprayed up, what paint is that? Would like to see a pic of that back in.........wait for it to dry first though! LOL

Are you going to spray the window switches?

Here's mine, I think it's a big improvement but I have silver everywhere LOL

What shall we do????? brake your arms?

 

I do really like that sprayed silver, I was going to get the kit from Luke.........but might just give this a go I reckon.........Halfords here we come.......what paint is that you're using?

 

Cheers.

Powerlord - spotted your guilty secret! That's a Sinclair QL box in the background isn't it? So you're the guy that bought one :D

james,

 

I used halfords enamel paint and primer,I think if you are one of the lords patient children you could do it a lot better,I am not.

 

I sanded the fascia down lightly with 600 grade to break the surface and then in with the primer (after cleaning it of course)

 

I got a bit sily with the paint first time round and put too heavy a coat on ( no patience) and had to clean it off and start again. As a result there are a few patches on it,but to match my impatience I am not a perfectionist.

 

A little time taken would see it right:)

 

Powerlord: Nice saltyre

You reckon they'll be about the same price Mac?

I think they will be a bit more than that.

 

I got mine here but your place is cheaper.

It's the RA91 or RA92 depending on whether you want chrome or titanium effect.

Mine and Macca's are titanium.

Powerlord, whats that switch on the bottom of your centre console?

My Jap spec had a blanking plate glued over that exact spot, the same size etc.

Always wondered what had been fitted there.

im pretty sure thats the switch for the parking aerial thingy. Optional extra I guess, not many have them.
