billybunters - from a bmw z4 to a mx5 se

[Okibi]

Did you try the SE lip being a light silver?

DAY 33 - 3 plus hours

Nah!...never thought of it. if you mean the rear wing I had already painted most of it yesterday.

had a lot of problems with this rear wing and it has a broken/missing bolt anyway so its stuffed. had to eventually rub it right back to the bare plastic with the help of paint stripper

I would say most likely the worst job of the whole spray...nothing went right












on the car but I think I will require another one with all bolts intact. i'd say one broke off from the NT runs when I ran the boot bag on the rear end. its on but only held by two bolts and would have to run double side tape to keep it from moving about and rattling

DAY 34 - 10 minutes

decided to re-spray the console today then off on the motorbike for another ride and another snake incident. this time not far from the one the other day-within 100 metres but this time hit it so I was off the bike seconds later checking the legs not hard to check rather white legs either again. I think I will pick a better road from now on

^^^ The real reason billybunter re-sprays his car ever couple of months.

the wife on the left - the hot one-and the daughter dressed up for last night's Halloween - her birthday after 12 so I said - leave the mask on for some excitement - she replied -what mask

DAY 35 - 2 hours

pulled the rear right wheel and cleaned up the under side with degreaser









then painted the underside black





while at it decided to spray the wheel - white to see how it looked





fitted all the plastic fasteners back on - then on with the wheel








then a knock at the door and a delivery-new wiper blades on tomorrow

[billybunter]

I've been look'in at this rear wheel I painted yesterday and thinking -there may have been a mistake with paint job number two and this is the white I was suppose to paint the car might give me something to think about - take 3

well I suppose I could have given her a spray over too BUT she did that blue herself hard to believe 20 years ago she was without a doubt the worst kids face painter I had ever seen and now she gets $80 an hour for a job she once hated

[billybunter]

DAY 36 - 1 hour

decided to re-dye the roof. that reminds me- have to attach those two straps at the rear











then decided to take it outside to have a better look




still not too sure about this colour





I have black side stripes arriving shortly so will see how that goes and maybe try black wheels or I may have to try another re- paint

[KevGoat]

Quite a difference in those whites!
