Ok, this has been in my head for a long time, finally decided to order and put in on.


This little update is about wheelstriping, sticker, with an additional effect..;

Image

Reflection..!


As well in day as in the nighttime, the effect is cool. In daylight you'll notice the colour of the rimribbon (while it still reflects, sunlight/daylight), which matches the car's colour, and it sorta breaks de rim/tyre.

Conclusion, I think it's nice, ..especially considering the price £3,20 including shipment all the way from China :thumbs: !

Thnx :thumbs: !
Bought them from forummember tychogsi, they are heated & ventilated Calibra seats.
I then had a specialist refurbish 'em.
Will fit the back seat later.

Thnx :thumbs: , as matter of fact, boot 'n hood are out for paint as I type.
Expect to get back in 1 week or so, pics in 2, will be painted gloss black.

That is part I of the paintjob, part II consists of the grills, mirrors, some other trim, and probably the roof too.
