Project Pete (Project 200)

[burgundyB]

Trying keep the costs down as low as possible but still get a good job.
Don't want it showroom condition but want it respectable.
Just over 12 months ago I had a 280bhp Toyota mr2 but sold it cus needed more seats
My bmw is nearly 200 and it feels like driving a slug
I want something that is scary to drive

But to be fair my mate had a redtop mk3 Astra gsi and was pretty quick

The other route to paint is simply to vinyl wrap and if ya need any help mate let us no and happy to as ive sprayed and wrapped

[burgundyB]

heard vinyl wrap can be hard, but if you've done it and would give me a hand that would be ace!! I'm still undecided on a colour

[burgundyB]

I'm thinking redtop as well, cus it's probably going be my daily. Then for my next corsa project do saab

Some hard work gone into this so far mate arches cleaned up good. did you just use Shultz on the arches ?

[burgundyB]

Cheers mate, trying get it in best condition as I can. I wire brushed everything down, the sand papered it. Then sprayed it with protective black paint. Iv been really anal with everything tho. It got to the point I bought a toothbrush just to get the dust out the cracks before I sprayed lol

Should have sprayed it with underseal like waxol, last and protects it much longer

[burgundyB]

Yeah my plan is to go over everything with waxoyl after iv refurbished it. For underneath iv got etch primer, stone chip, black paint then waxoyl
