Haha oiii! Phase 1's look better half tinted in my opinion. Only cos they look gash standard. Joe
p1 lights are nicer than p2 lights IMO
Quick out the blocks as in this was only an idea last week and this week you have half done it!
Immediacy is good, think it, say it, do it!
Any in progress pics? I am very interested in this subject as it will give me an idea what mine is going to look like. I have seen Raceworx effort and love the look, i do want to see one with a decent finish tho (Raceworx did his in a weekend for the crack)
As for the northern meet, bump!
im using halfords stuff, i found that it leaves no blemishes, bright spots. ive only got the bumpers done, im betting a VZR grill and joy tuing skirts next week, the bonet and wings are the next on the list after i get the bootlid and the other dents fixed
Finish looks sweet Chris, top work.
I would clearcoat though, protect the finish.
As for Matt Black being dead, yeah its been done millions of times since cars were invented, does'nt stop it looking rock hard does it? i can't remember the last time i saw a Matt Black motor!
I had a NATO Green Polo Breadvan in 94 so...
I would go for a colour change but i would want all the reveals done too (its my daily so thats out)
Personal preference rules.

vzr grill, some pics here of what turned out shit at the start, went and bought more paint and primer etc and started over, not sure what went wrong the first time round as it was the same paint used on the bumpers :S
