Atlantis Blue 1.0L
I've owned the car for quite a while now, and it has already had quite a lot done to it. This won't be so much of a progress thread, but i'll just update it when I do something as i'm sure i'll always think of something else to do, and I seem to be doing stuff everyday recently. This is how it used to sit;

And this is how it sits now (sorry it's just the 1 crappy photo haha);
Anyway, i'm determined to get it back to it's former glory, and so i'll update this every time something new happens.
Thanks for looking

Re: Atlantic Blue 1.0L
Dewipered yesterday, and it turned out to be a lot easier than I thought it was. Makes the boot look a bit better;
When I took it off there was a couple of areas where paint had been taken off, like deep scratches. They're quite notiecable so could anyone suggest anything as to how I can get them out?

You could get that patch of the boot resprayed, or spray it yourself if your confident enough mateJamesT0708 wrote:Dewipered yesterday, and it turned out to be a lot easier than I thought it was. Makes the boot look a bit better;

Re: Atlantic Blue 1.0L
I was thinking about it tbh but I don't know if I have the bottle to do it haha. Looking into a full boot respray as there's another area on the boot that needs some tlc but don't know what price i'd be looking at yetTristan wrote:You could get that patch of the boot resprayed, or spray it yourself if your confident enough mateJamesT0708 wrote:Dewipered yesterday, and it turned out to be a lot easier than I thought it was.

Re: Atlantic Blue 1.0L
If you wanted to save some money, you could do all the prep work and just get them to paint the boot, but tbh I'd rather pay for the profesgional to do it lolJamesT0708 wrote:I was thinking about it tbh but I don't know if I have the bottle to do it haha.

Re: Atlantic Blue 1.0L
Yeah and me, i've painted stuff before but not to this scale and it's not exactly my strong point haha. I'll get a few quotes to see what price i'm looking at first though

If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway

Re: Atlantis Blue 1.0L
One thing I wish I did to my Atlantis Blue B was limo tint the rear windows, never got a chance to do it. I know it's not 'scene' but to be honest, I couldn't care less. I think it'll suit yours especially with those wheels!!
