awesome well done you two, i love the bit after all is fitted and its finally lowered down

its best doing it in stages though, dont over do it though, or you'll be on the bump stops

keep up good work

 

[markbognor]

Ooh that's smart mate, you spray it with fabric stuff or is it felt?

It's a secret.... (matt black from halfords all over.)
Same way i did my parcel shelf. I don't think it will last that long as it is not intended for that vinyl so will probably peel off in the future but it will do until i can redo it all properly.

the door panel looks loads better mate. i was planning on doing the same. is it just normal black spray paint? and will it last long?

As i said above it's just matt black from halfords. I don't think it will last long.
but have better plans for the door card anyways

The paint will stick to all plastics interior & exterior if you first get rid of any silicone laden polishes with detergent then wipe it over with plastic solvent liquid you can get from automotive paint suppliers.Think it only comes in 1 litre cans tho which would do 50+ Micras
It's coming on nicely Shaun!

 

[alexzaki]

Thats looking good...(Y)

 

[will930]

indeed coming along well half my plan there i think but im planning on doing a tad more and my door cards are rotten

 

[Scott]
