Think you just made the colour decision for me... definitely not going red!!! Satin white pearl is looking the goods!

Will be doing colour testing on boot before any decision is finally made however! Would do orange but dont think they look any good :mrgreen: ... Aaron????

Cheers

oh c'mon. Don't let me turn you away, Red is a great colour for a 1600. White is what everyone wants. Blue and black is what everyone has. And dark green is fantastic (but i would have owned 3 green cars in a row). And i've never seen a great looking Orange one. However, I must put the Lambo Orange to you with a bit of sparkle if you're going to do that. But be warned that Orange is the most expensive colour you can buy for paint...

Guys, bought them from Pare Composites.

Most likely should see if he will do a group buy on them, or ask how many you'd need to order to get a discount! Sells a bit of carbon stuff for the 1600's.

"""No good orange ones, thats harsh...""" it was ment to be!!! :mrgreen: Just remember Aaron, your car is what started my rebuild..... so I blame you for the cash I am throwing at it!! I would have gone Lamboghini orange, well tested it anyway but I think one schmick orange one is enough!!!

Yeah Mate... he does door trims, parcel shelves, dash vents.... heaps of gear!! My scuff plates are not bad at all, one of them just has a little chunck of resin on one... nothing major will just leve it there!!!

Ok, small update.... rear pillars near complete... in end hardly any body filler was needed. Happy...

Orange 510's look good. There's a two door in the US that has black wheels and a cage that looks tough.
White is always good, but i'm biased.
I do like the 'granny' colours. LIke the light green/light blue. Don't like the light brown though :D

Sorry Arron. Last orange one i looked at in person was totally ugly and I thought your one was a bit lighter in colour. I stand corrected. I do like it!

Car looks awesome. Love the shaved vents!!
As for orange, I'd still consider it. Cool colour!

Well, been a bit slack, had surgery on my back so things been a bit slow.

My new dorr trims arrived today, and I must say I am impressed. Copy of originals, and look great.

I purchased them from Leigh on this forum, efi510 is his username.. maybe???

Anyway, happy with them. I had an idea of putting these speaker mounts on the front trims, but I might give that a miss now!! Not worth drilling holes through nice new trims!!

The stripes a on the trims are caused by the laser light panels in the patio roof if you are wondering if they are on the trim.. they are not!

Update....

Been working on the undercarriage. Getting there. It's had a few dings underneath, but most are removed. Many holes welded up, seems everybody wanted to add something to the car over the years.
