shawdreamer Posted August 20, 2009 Author Share Posted August 20, 2009 (edited) so, woke in a decidedly motivated mood today..... strange really considering the massive amount of JD I consumed last night early doors (before the sun came out and made my life harder for outside spraying).... bulge bonnet came back of for a lot of prep work and sand down....http://www.evo-host.co.uk/getimg/21168.jpg Happy with the prep I got on with a nice few solid coats of primer....http://www.evo-host.co.uk/getimg/21169.jpg figured while I was semi covered in filler dust and half hardened filler Id address the grill recess(were the ford badge can often be found, allways intended to smooth it out....looks so much better with colour)....http://www.evo-host.co.uk/getimg/21170.jpg http://www.evo-host.co.uk/getimg/21171.jpg http://www.evo-host.co.uk/getimg/21172.jpg http://www.evo-host.co.uk/getimg/21173.jpg All primed up and still waiting on my exact match Litre of colour paint to turn up Ive temp re-fitted it back to the car.....looks pretty good even in primer grey IMO.......and NO......I aint ratting it!http://www.evo-host.co.uk/getimg/21174.jpg Edited August 20, 2009 by shawdreamer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

massivewangers Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 Is the bumper the right colour already? Massive improvement over the base model one, but crying out for the headlights! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawdreamer Posted August 20, 2009 Author Share Posted August 20, 2009 looking good , be careful with that pound land primer though it likes to react lol poundlands greys non-to-bad aslong as you remove the laqceur completely before spraying over (thats what commonly causes the reaction issue when using any primer), besides which Ill be throwing a couple of high build primer coats ontop of all that so I can address any stone chip indents I might have missed. Is the bumper the right colour already?Massive improvement over the base model one, but crying out for the headlights! luckily it appears to be yer..... minor shade difference but that'll probably reduce once Ive had the wings and bodywork mopped post spraying. the lights aernt a massive issue at the moment, they can be picked up and installed anytime so I aint to fussed about chasing them right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
escortjas Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Looks good, i've always liked that front end, especially with morrettes with an inner removed, looks evil imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawdreamer Posted August 24, 2009 Author Share Posted August 24, 2009 been playing with a adaption idea concerning the wing fitted indicators, personally allways preffered the more curvy Mk6 indys rather than the "cars got 2 pimples" mk5 version. so set about figuring a way of doing it without actually having to cut the Mk5's wing to accomodate the larger Mk6 indicator housing.... eventually came up with this, well tbf only a rough approximation of what they'll eventually look like..... from this...http://www.evo-host.co.uk/getimg/21215.jpg to this.....http://www.evo-host.co.uk/getimg/21216.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
