Well, its certainly acheived the desired effect you were after. Doesnt look too bad in the pics.

But thats just me your choice mate... so when are you going to ring me up and invite me and don around for this BBQ!!

I like it
 that second shot looks horn i reckon, the black highlight in the front bar matches the newly sprayed black wheel centres perfectly  EDIT: Just noticed where the rear bar got sprayed in the centre, i thought it was just the shadow on first look

the black on th ekit looks nice, love the black rims, sets the car off to a new subtle way that makes you now look three times instead of twice.
I would paint the insert around the fog lights black as well, saw this mod on a orange BA xr6 and i couldnt stop looking at it, you look at the bar like, what bar is that ..???????? Attachment: ford breez.jpg (like my poxy edit i added)anyways .............. love the way you car looks makes the BA look better then all other models. i got a Green FG xr6 and i still regard the BA as the best looking ford out good work You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post. |
