well after several hours of messing with the car today...im still not finished lol, one more stripe left on the roof and just the badges to take off now...

Apart from my car now having "ghost flames" i think it looks awesome... a cut n polish and a clay bar should hopefully fix that tomorrow

Next step is to hopefully find a white XR8 bonnet so that i dont have this one anymore..
but i dunno, i kinda like it now its just white.

Will post up fotos as soon as i can, will probably be tuesday as i left my cable at work sad.gif



and tocchi...the only smoke your gona see from me...is from my feet at basketball on Monday...coz we are gona be on FIREEEEE smile.gif lets hope we win lol

cooky- 04-10-2009
Also guys....i have finally given my car a name smile.gif
after i took the stripes off, it just suited her..

Shes now called Casper smile.gif


also... im changing my moulding on the side n front... so its not blue anymore... would it be easier to just buy new moulding and paint it white?
or is it easy to take off and just paint the one i have?

it has a few bubbles in it atm...no scratches or anything from what i can see, but the previos owner just painted the blue str8 over the red, so there is a couple red chips..

any help is appreciated,

thanks guys.

is a improvement didnt think it would.

are you thinking of removing or colour code the side moldings.

needs clear side indicators aswell.

cooky- 04-12-2009
yeah i was thinking of colour coding them, not too sure if itd look good tho? the blue kinda breaks it up a bit..

yeh i want some clear repeaters....any ideas on where to get some??

AYE YOU- 04-12-2009
ebay always has them:P

Daynesy- 04-12-2009
I reckon. . . white ef/el's, colour coded bumpers, clear indicators, tinted tail lights and dark tint looks hoooorn!

xf351gt- 04-12-2009
different model but same shape near the doors this is what it looks like totaly removed.

dont think there been on for least 10 years but never gets parked in shoping centers for obvious reasons of dings.

cooky- 06-24-2009
hey guys juss curious,

before the photoshoot cruise, im just thinking, for those who have seen my car, or the photo above, do you think it looks good with the current bonnet, or would it look better with a standard GLi bonnet?

i like the bonnet, coz its different, im pretty sure ive got the only EL XR with WRX vents?

but i think im over it!

also, if i buy a new bonnet, any1 know of any resprayers who is good/cheap?

thanks smile.gif
