Not a fan of the plasti-dip around the windscreen (not sure why since I love black highlights on yellow or white cars) but I don't mind the side quarter windows, the side view mirrors look great and the white tyre lettering really lights up the tyres.

Looking forward to your next mods, this is a great looking car.

White lettering really makes those tyres pop, but shows you are trying too hard.

The white lettering will wear off. Just wanted to see what it would look like.

Looking great Ron. What did you use on the tyres? I've been thinking about doing the same but wasn't sure what pen to use

Ta, used two different types, UNI paint marker sold at automotive shops and a TOYO marker available from kids toy shops.

That was only 1 application, if I were to go over it again would stand out more.

No turbo. One day a supercharger would be nice.
