Guest Cabbytech Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 (edited) Thought i would post up a few pics of my sons Fiesta that im painting for him, just sides and rear hatch to do now and its done. He is on about having the wheels white, but im not sure, and we are looking for a front bumper with the fog lamps for it. I havent buffed or polished it yet, thats how it came out of the gun.

Guest Cabbytech Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 Thanks a lot for your comments guys, i like things to look right, i hate to see masking lines everywhere on cars, so i always strip them back, i think it adds to the finish and looks more professional. My mates always tell me im too much of a perfectionist, but to me its got to be right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Cabbytech Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 Yes m8 its all done, just needs a final flatting and buffing, this is the last pic i took when it just needed the rear wash wipe and spoiler putting back on. He still has'nt decided what colour to do the wheels yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Cabbytech Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Its a great colour, and my personal favourite, the colour is Ford Matisse Levante Blue, and it is a pearl metallic, not an easy colour to spray but does look great once on. Thanks for all your comments peeps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
