corsa b keyed to death

Post by mikeCsport »

well some horrible bastard decided to key my car, across the bonnet and all the way up the passenger side. but going to re-spray back to its former glory and while i was thinking of spraying it i bought a gsi bumper and front skirts, i have many plans for it just see how the funds go.

Bastards. Why can't people leave cars alone? I hate seeing cars get keyed.

Sounds like good ideas you got I'll have to upload pics lol

in the last couple of days i've sanded sound the bonnet and sprayed it in primer. smoothed it with some 800 wet and dry and vinyl wrapped in carbon fibre. looks much better, just got a quote to get it sprayed profesionally in vxr blue. and fully colour coded. i bought a GSI Bumper on ebay but he didn't say it was cut off a fibre glass car and is missing the fitting lugs and is just a general mess. but side skirts look nice

this is what it looked like after primering

this is what it looks like wrapped before i washed it

the only thing i would say with wrapping you need to make sure you primer black underneath, i accidently caught it with the heat gun and made a tiny mark and wouldn't be noticeable.

the bumper images as well

and this is the final key mark on the main body work. got 2 new wings what will all be sprayed in one go

cheers mate. just forked out £350 for a toad alarm which has sensors on the panels to tell its being keyed. just saving up to get it sprayed, and colour coded but re-spraying in vxr blue just to revive the paint abit if there are any sprayers on here im looking for quote :) . obviously while its there gonna have the back de-wipered i don't like the look of bungs. i've also heard rumours of depo's but with out the grooved lenses and are for right hand drive. apparently there gold dust and i can't find them anywhere. sometime next year after respray im gonna do a z20let conversion but unfortunatly its all about funds. eye lids were supposed to arrive in the week but obviously they can't be asked to send them. anyway and quotes for respraying very welcome as my quote nearly made my pockets fall out with eachother
