A little update!
Funki, i know you had the detailing done, and when i saw your pics i knew i'd go the same way, how much lacquer do they actually take off when detailing? because i thought that the candy was just a coloured lacquer so to speak. i have asked him to finish with clear lacqure but only gave him 3 liters, how much will i need to give 5 -6 coats?

A little update!
That was the flake, don't know what the paint micro is, the flake might be a little bigger than that, maybe 0.008 not sure off the top of my head.

A little update!
he's got some lacquer but not sure how many coats are going on, i will ask him, and hes got to wait for the next batch of paint to arrive anyway. i'll get some more lacquer and surprise him! lol

A little update!
think it was 0.0008 microns or something like that, i got 1/2 pound which was 4tubs,but dont think he'll use 2 pots, but at least it gives me some in case of disaster! i've had a few things made/mixed up just for me to get that unique effect.

A little update!
i was just thinking the same thing! lol :rofl: Well i got 5 liters of candy, at a 2:1 + 10% mix that gives 8 and a bit liters, he kindly told me to get the effect i want i need another 5 liters of candy and 2.5 of activator!!! so in total a whopping 16 liters of mixed candy paint add that to the 7 mixed liters of base coat.... the paint job will weigh as much as the car! lol but seriously thats like 23 liters of mixed paint!! :shock: :shock:

Dates for SE summer party
ok ok... i'll listern to the masses, you want a party in Brighton ...so beit, same times same dates just From the Chafford Hundrad to brighton in stead,. as i said it really makes no difference for me, i went down to Brighton to pick up the Mrs's Scooby, think it took about 3 hours door to door, so with a stop off at the chafford hundrad makes a nice day of it. i'm gonna close this thread now as ppl are just going to keep going on, i'll start another one with all the details on and ppl can then just say if they're coming or not.

Dates for SE summer party
If Yarmouth is out side the south east then i have no place being the SE REO as it's more south east than me The total traveling time for me is alot more than that, evens the REO, i could have just made it all closer to me,but i didnt, i'm prepared to travel for a big meet like this. but i have listened to what the SE east wanted, more ppl would have gone to Yarmouth had it of been on the original poll, so thats where the meet is going to finish up. 3 hours??? i did a map quest from Brighton to Yarmouth and that only took 2 hours! where in London are you coming from? The south West Side? As it has been said before it really doent matter where the meet is i'll never please every one, all the time and as it was also said just to choose a place and a date which i have done. and as i also said if you cant or wont travel to Yarmouth then just attend the meet at the Chafford Hundrad pub.

Dates for SE summer party
First off sorry this has taken so long to get up, I know alot of ppl are waiting to see this happen. Secondly sorry for missing out Yarmouth on the poll for the location, i can see that a few ppl were upset by this, this was a genuine mistake by me. Maybe instead of The Isle of sheppy for the 'put the Zed's to bed for the winter' party we can go to Yarmouth instead. Anyway on to the dates. JAE is on the 20th - 22nd of July i believe billing is 14th - 15th so we need to decided as an area if we try for something before these dates or after them, if it's before then we/i only have a bout 4 week to arrange it ifit's after it gives us a little more time. So the preposed dates are as follows:- 7th/8th of July (first week of July) or 5th/6th of August (first week of August) leaving it late it to august means that the end of summer party might not actually be in the summer! and the weather might be starting to get a bit poo. i'll leave it up to you guys!

Bumper?
I got mine from him and the rear went straight on no modding needed and the front required a light fettling of the indicators to fit perfectly. Well worth the money IMO but then someone else bough a front bumper and took them 7 hours to get it to fit properly! HTH some Neil

rear fog light switch
Think what Si is trying to say is the fog light switch is in the same position on all models just on the Jap spec it controls the front and the rear on the uk spec,if you buy another switch, where you going to put it?? Alot of ppl including my self have just bought an illuminated rocker switch and wired that in to control the rear foglight, i ran a wire straight from the battery a mini junction box(so i have power in the cabin and i know where it is and where it came from) then from the junction box to the switch, from the switch to the rear foglight.simple really.
