  1. this is what i was thinking, idea was good, but glad i mocked it up
  2. now that i've done it, i'm trying to work out if i like it or not starting to think purple is a little to garish
  3. been toying with some ideas need some opinions thought i'd do some rough mock ups took this as the basis for the idea and turned it into these options, best bet is to look at them through squinted eyes, whats peoples thoughts?
  4. was going to say the purple on the rear looked like it had orange peeled, or textured slightly. did you clear coat on top? looks like the pruple needed a rubdown with a fine W&D before the clear coat. that or you were moving to quickly with the clear coat and it dusted the clear coat on, and didn;t give the the blending it needed.
  5. we could club together and treat ricey to this
  6. got these at work, have to say working with hot tools is awsome fun slippery slope ricey, before you know it youll have some big arse gas bottles
  7. and it will have feckall impact sadly
  8. Sorry, don't have anything for Jaguar. On things like this, OEM supplier is going to be the best bet (Koni, Bilstein, H&R). I can supply them, but nothing in the MeisterR line for the XKR. appreciate the heads up, thanks for the info

    colours only limited by the spray paint catalogue. the base colour is what shines through.

    I am not sure if anyone has done it on here, but it is defo possible. Have a look online, its very big in the states its on my list of exchange parts to do. I'm hopefully picking up a dash and the bits of the arm rests i don;t have. currently got 1 and the insert. just need drivers side and the centre, possibly a cubby. then it will get sanded down and filled and dipped. also planning to do the battery and brake fluid covers, got something special up my sleeve for them. also got a rear strut to do as well. just takes time as this is not my day job and more a hobby, and prefer to do things on an exchange basis as it means people only pay when parts are ready and i'm not held to time constraints of people wanting their stuff back as their car is in pieces. may not be to everyones liking doing it this way and i tend to keep to just doing normal carbon as it becomes a hassle mixing it all up etc. i do it cos i enjoy it not because i'm earning a crust. as soon as it becomes a chore, i'll probalby stop.
  13. thank god for watch lists, just saved a fiver off the new replacement aerial i needed for the jag
  14. there is a list on here somewhere you can add yourself too

    painting is part of the process, as the image is etched into the paint. no paint no pattern
  16. did you need brembo decals to go on the calipers? can cut you a set to fit perfectly if you want them
