Re: vauxhall cavalier 4x4 turbo
Obviously pleased for you, looks nice. Not keen on the red coolant bottle, I imagine the paint will flake off of that easily enough too, but overall looks really nice. Has it had front end damage at some point? The bonnet/grille/headlights don't look very well aligned, you might want to straighten them out a bit.
Good work though, look forward to progress. What are the alloy centre caps by the way? Couldn't make them out?

Re: vauxhall cavalier 4x4 turbo
i was wondering the same as on one of the photos the drivers wing looks different shade from door? (you can tell with how shine/reflection differs where the door meets the wing?..)humbucker wrote:Obviously pleased for you, looks nice.

I think it looks great tho, and the red is ok - be boring if we were all the same!

Re: vauxhall cavalier 4x4 turbo
ah ok just standard ones, looked like a different logo but must have been the discolouring.
Re: vauxhall cavalier 4x4 turbo
Its not the bonnet thats the problem its the drivers front wing, its to dark, even on that pic above you can tell. It needs the wing painting again and blending into the door, wud look spot on then.
Re: vauxhall cavalier 4x4 turbo
its just pic mate as its bonnet thats wrong couler slightly off couler
Re: vauxhall cavalier 4x4 turbo
Been spraying cars for along time, its the wing trust me.
