I decided i wanted a respary. It didn't need a full respray, but it did need some paint, and i hate cars that look painted. So much so, that im thinking about getting the M3 a full respray just to it looks right.
I had in my head, i wanted Imola Red. Its such a nice colour, and ive never seen a Compact done in Imola.
I started a pole on here, and imola red was most popular, just.
I went to the paint shop, and seeing the colour, it just looked to plain and boring. I had a picture in my head of how nice it would look, but the red just looked wrong. Im not a fan of red cars, but love Imola.
My second choice, was IBIS white, an Audi colour. I said that to the bloke painting it (a mate of mine), and he got all excited saying how nice it would look.
We bought everything needed to prep the car, but i didn't buy the paint, just the primer. I didn't want to make a rush decision, id regret.
With the car flat down, and ready for paint, id made my mind up, it would be Ibis, but with a twist. With it being a track car, i thought it would look good with a black roof. I then thought to follow it to the bonnet and rear spoiler.
Its not quite finshed, but i could contain myself, so took some pictures today.
The rear diffuser isn't back on yet, and the mirrors will be black. The spoiler isn't bolted back on yet either.
Her it is...
