Machine monkeys zed

When is that?
I do want to show her off once this year :thumbsup:

Thanks again its nice to hear that you like it too. Hopefully get her put back together on Sunday.
 
Let's face it, any paint is an improvement, even yellow...... :slaphead: sorry, no forget that last bit!

This reminds me of the Golf GTI mk 4 colour that they did all the promo shots in...

 
Truly unique in a good way , i am so looking forward to seeing it rolling with all the bits & pieces on .
Glad you dropped the free Nissan grey paint :cry: , this looks a real head turning colour
I can just see this ripping through the lanes & sleepy towns in Normandy :driving: epic & total admiration for your efforts :thumbsup:
 
HI MM, Great to see it painted. Colour should look really good, once polished and back together. It'll go well with the polished wheels. :thumbsup: See you at the Watermill if you make the Meet. Welcome to the unique Zed colour club! :D
 
Steve your not wrong mate any paint is better. Be careful what you say. You dont need to be falling out with Carol again!!!
It is quite similar to that golf. Maybe a bit darker in reality.

Thanks Andy thats very kind of you to say. Looking forward to Normandy :thumbsup: You might like looking at it wait till you hear it!! All though you might all want me at the back after an hour!!

Yeah John your car was a bit of inspiration. Well if he can do it so can I. Although i did get help. There is the Lambo gray yours and mine not sure about others? small club anyway!
 
That's pretty cool MM, I'm glad you got round to painting it. It's going to need some black wheels to set it off I think, what do you reckon?

No chance am I covering my polished wheels with paint. I have done am deal with a forum member for those wheels in black I just need the cash to pay him.

Trust me it will look great with the polished wheels.
 
So it's all back together I will need the bumper off again. Just to sort a few bits and bobs. The colour is amazing I love it :thumbsup: it dose need some touching up and a lot of flatting and polishing. I will post some pictures tomorrow when I am at a PC.

Colour looks great MM. Half out of interest and half to prove to myself I'm not mad, didn't Brad Marsh's wider-than-average Z turn out in a similar colour to that?
I also think it's the right decision to stick with the polished wheels FWIW.

Hi Stevo i am not sure if Brad actually got a finished paint job on his car yet. But i think it may have been similar colour maybe a bit lighter.

So hear some all put back together but not finished pictures. It needs flatting and polishing. At the moment the finish is not the best. But the paint is nice and thick 4 undercoat and 6 top coats. So there is plenty to flat and get a really deep shine. It looks very flat at the moment.

Keen eyed views will notice the little side skirts and front bumper splitter. These will all be warped gloss black in the future. You might even notice the silver mirrors!! We forgot to do them!!! Again they might get wrapped black or painted.

The colour looks much better outside and i absolutely love it now. And i will be spending any free time over the next few weeks polishing and getting it how i want it.

Notice the annoying silver line in the boot!!! This will be sorted.

Even like the silver mirrors.. a bit like my Audi :D
