Interlagos Purple

I created a thread in the detailing section, but after having the car fully Gtechniq detailed all round, and this is a thread about my paint :rofl: Here's my Interlagos Purple as of today:

Edit: not that anyone will really give a toot, but that's not me driving, that's Dave @ DDB Detailing who did the job. The guy is a magician.


 
the only thing that would finish it - fresh blabpck paint on the calipers and shiny silver caliper clips. But I am being waaaaaay too picky :oops: - it looks amazing :thumbsup:
 
Aye Dave the detailer said he was considering painting the calipers but he ain't a painter, and as they're the OEM ones he decided otherwise, to be fair that wasn't in the scope of the work so I'm not too bothered about that. I had two quite noticeable coin sized dents in the paintwork which he had a specialist remove, dark arts at play as there's now zero trace of them ever being there at all with no respraying or painting done.
 
Looking super nice ncrossy1980 :thumbsup: well done for picking the best colour. I mean one of the best colours.....

Thanks Beedub!

I have ordered some Apex Arc8's to see what the handling difference will be like and also start doing some track days.

I'm not totally sure what I will do with the M3 wheels yet.

Hijack..... Would be really interested to see pic's of the Apex wheels when you get them, as I have been considering them for my 'Purple' coupe as well. Which colour did you go with, as I am looking at the Anthracite Vs Hyper Silver.
 
Austin - I'm on Ground Control kit... not sure exact heights but definitely a bit lower than standard.
 
Cheers Jimmy...
Would be a huge coincidence, but you're not a Halifax boy originally are you?!
 
I see from your signature your from the cloudy north their inlies the problem. I currently run a mk7 golfR ( don't shoot me please can't afford an R and a Z ). The golf is Lapis Blue and I have exactly the same discussion is it purple or is it blue. The biggest influence is the weather/light conditions , in our normal grey cloudy light the car definitely looks purple. However when the sun makes it up here it transforms to a brilliant blue, also under streetlights it goes an even deeper shade of blue.
Best thing is when I am driving it I can't really see its colour just enjoy the experience so purple / blue who cares !!!.
 
I have a Blue Z4MR and I can honestly say I have never considered that it looks purple
