GMballistic Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Great changes Will. Few ideas ~ going with the black theme have you thought about using the black tint spray on your rear indicators/fog/reverse? what about blackening the orange reflectors in the front bumper slightly more to match the side indicators? Also have you given any more thought to starting your own build thread? I'd just do it, put a link to this one and steal all the pictures from here for your new build thread. Just I wasn't going to look in here as I was like who's "Builder49"? Then I remembered it was who used to own your car. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to be careful with too much tinting of lights in London as you will get a pull all the time for it. The orange side reflectors are pretty dark, just think they are in direct sunlight which makes them look brighter. I have just asked the Mods if they can change the title, so let see, I don't want to take away what Paul did originally, as its part of the cars history. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMballistic Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 That's cool Will and let's hope the mods will change the title for you. Black Betty rules. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ioneabee Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 (edited) Agreed ^ but Marmite definately stood out marmite now known as Black Betty or Sweaty Betty ? Edited August 27, 2014 by ioneabee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marzman Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 I definitely prefer this look. It will look seriously awesome with some spacers though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davedutch Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Spacers and coilovers to lower the whole package, then dark tint the rear screen and quarter windows with a light tint to the side Windows. Finally ( as long as you don't like seeing where you are going) tint the headlights as well. Black betty will be very "KITT" and very stealth like. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ioneabee Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 and the thread needs to be named "Sweaty Betty" or even better "Betty Swollocks" .................. not Black Betty (how lame) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
