SparksCW Posted March 25, 2012 Posted March 25, 2012 Took 12 weeks due to a bodyshop messing me around then me having to move it to another more reliable one. All work was completed by the second garage, ERB Motors in Portsmouth and I'm super happy with the result. Had some repair work to rear left quater in case people remember my "oops" thread door handles are colour matched orange, a V1 spoiler sprayed and fitted, wheels refurbed in black and the whole car was mopped, got rid of a load of scratches and swirls etc. The front bumper will need replacing/respraying as it appears to have been resprayed in the past to a mediocre standard. But that'll have to wait!! Thanks to ZMANALEX and TARMAC SPORTS for supplying parts. What do you all think? Quote
Dblock Posted March 25, 2012 Posted March 25, 2012 very nice really looks good. Aerial needs to go though Quote
Will370z Posted March 25, 2012 Posted March 25, 2012 Looks fantastic, sun really catches the colour well. Bet you are going to have a fun summer. Normally im never much of a fan of black wheels but they really look good on your car Quote
Adrian@TORQEN Posted March 25, 2012 Posted March 25, 2012 Looks really nice, I would have done the door handles in black to match the wheels Look for a Honda aerial, there were a few on ebay Nismo v1 front bumper at a later stage, perhaps the side skirts as well? Quote
m-zed89 Posted March 25, 2012 Posted March 25, 2012 I really like the black rays. Am getting mine powder coated in the very near future Quote
ZMANALEX Posted March 26, 2012 Posted March 26, 2012 Looking really good mate Bet you are well chuffed Alex Quote
bronzee Posted March 26, 2012 Posted March 26, 2012 Looks fantastic! Shiny as! Think that's the first time I've seen a Sunset with colour coded door handles, actually looks really cool. Quote
captain Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 Excellent. Now do the bumper tuck.............. Quote
glrnet Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 That, sir, is very nice indeed Agree with captain though, needs a little bumper tuck Quote
SparksCW Posted March 27, 2012 Author Posted March 27, 2012 Thanks for all the comments I did consider a bumper tuck but I don't really like it if I'm honest. would prob change my mind if I saw one in the metal though rather than a pic. Quote
SparksCW Posted April 2, 2012 Author Posted April 2, 2012 From Goodwood yesterday low quality grabbed from a friends facebook but still quite good. Quote
evest Posted April 2, 2012 Posted April 2, 2012 Very Personally I think you should now colour match your wheel nuts to the body - will give a nice accent to those lovely rays. Quote
SparksCW Posted April 2, 2012 Author Posted April 2, 2012 Very Personally I think you should now colour match your wheel nuts to the body - will give a nice accent to those lovely rays. That does actually sound like a good idea.. I guess they'd have to be gold anodised rather than painted sunset orange as they wont last painted. Hmm wonder how much decent gold replacement bolts are Quote
col569 Posted May 12, 2012 Posted May 12, 2012 Not a huge fan of the orange but that looks awesome Quote
bobmac Posted June 8, 2012 Posted June 8, 2012 looks pretty, damn good mate !!!! just out of curiosity what is the zorst ? looks bloody greta and the guys are right its crying out for a tuck to show the exhaust off Quote

That does actually sound like a good idea.. I guess they'd have to be gold anodised rather than painted sunset orange as they wont last painted. Hmm wonder how much decent gold replacement bolts are painted mine when i had the rays fitted just to give you some idea of what they d look like. Quote
