Paint spray shops?
a friend of mind owns a body/paint shop and he does custom paintjobs for magazines etc... he is trying to get a concession to continue using cellulose paints as the type of work he does is not available in waterpaints, not sure how much research/development companies like 'house of colour' are doing into producing crazy waterbased paints or even if it is possible...

daves case is different... were not talking 100's of thousands here so its easier to write off... if he paid cash in then they have absolutely no comeback let alone any way of tracing it, the other high figure cases would have been transfered and traceable... its not as if they scan each note for each transaction so they know who paid what notes in! you have a signed receipt to say you paid 2200 in so if your conscience can handle it, smile and take the money... have you not played monopoly...

D.I.Y wheel referb
Carl... Funky-Si has done an FAQ on how 2 refurb wheels ... however, this is just for repaint, yours have a polished rim right? If this is the case, to get the best finish they need to be diamond cut on a lathe, which unless you have access to such hardware, could be a problem :p I have the same problem with my 18's from my old zed... the laquer got stonechips on it, which in turn allowed moisture onto the polished lip which began to tarnish/corrode then spread and lift more laquer... I paid a visit to a company called KO alloy wheels just north of the m25 up the a10, they had some rather exotic cars outside so i think they are a reputable company... they are prolly a little more expensive than your average refurb place but they do the polished lip thing properly. Furthermore... lol (made myself giggle with the formal paragraph opener!) they do NOT laquer the polished lips on their refurbs... the laquer lifts too easily unless you key the polished lip which ruins the polish... and people neglect to protect the bare alloy surface once moisture is in. He recommended to me that i have them done and polished, then spray the lip with hairspray creating an invisible barrier to protect the rim, if done regularly they should stay fine. Im sure there are plenty of other methods to protect them though. I think at the end of the day though, polished wheels on a daily drive is prolly not the best idea and a high power silver colour would be the way forward :)

are you talking 100% original as that would narrow it down to very few members, such as gio, in this months 'car of the month' competition... however, if your talking subtle modifications such as funky-si (wheels, exhaust).. then you open up a big field of candidates... Get in there funki-si, he hasnt mentioned that your colour isnt wanted and imo the pearl white is strong colour... i would also expect Steve-300zx to step forward for this but its a hefty journey for him... you work in southampton alot right Si? so its only round the corner for ya... heres ya big break!
