Cerbera in paint shop

[ukcerb]

Cerb has gone in for a respray. Was going to do after planned chassis change work planned for winter but it was badly stonechipped and further recent paint damage at indie to door and roof unfortunately forced me to do it sooner. Gone for a full respray in same flip flop blue but with a touch more pearl. Photos show light pods before and now flushed in to bodywork. I never liked the line around the pods (Just hope I never have to take the light units out for any reason!)

Damage @ Indie??

You won't need to get the pods out. I haven't.

It's a great colour. Bit late now, but why not get the indicator pods blended too? Or do they need to come out for bulb replacement? (not had to change one yet)

[julian64]

Did they buy the flat pods or did they just remove the rubber strip and filler the space??

I think its always good to post up whos doing the work if your happy with it

[ukcerb]

Ridds, damage at indie to roof and door. Some sort of fluid dripped onto paint and ate through laquer. They told me before I went to collect the car and agreed to pay for damage so I still happy to use and recommend them.
As for headlight now being `sealed` in I had a stone hit headlight and break it on my first cerb (single light) and when I took the pod out all the bonded bolts fell off anyway!

.Mark, indicator bulbs I think you change by unscrewing unit from behind. Did you mean the sidelights? Not sure how you change those but I saw a Red Rose `51 reg cerb with the same light setup blended in and like the look.

Julian 64, yes they are the original pods just blended in. I never liked the line around them.

Jimii, I will post up more pictures if I see car before they finish, probably next week. They part sprayed my first cerb (paradise purple) and made a really good job matching the colour. If you want their details I`ll send them through.

Does anyone know a good wheel refurb around Surrey area. Laquer on edge of rim is gone in places. They are a traffic star split rim i think

Is that the white cerb with a hint of blue in it? I think it was up for sale in classified a while back - has a lot of carbon under the bonnet (air intakes etc).
If so - saw it at Le Mans in 2009 and really liked the colour - suited the Cerb well. Spoke to the owner, seem to recal it had a rock start former owner?

I used these guys last year to refurb one wheel and very happy with the reult. Well, I was until I feckin kerbed the same wheel again recently

Mikeinsheffield, Yes same car, got a call from paint shop today, ready to collect tomorrow pm, can`t wait! The owner before me kept fantastic service and owner history, belonged to the drummer from The Animals when new.

Fubar, Thanks for the info, I shall give them a call. Sorry to hear about your kerb crawling incident!

[ukcerb]

Got the Cerb back Saturday from the paint shop and took some pictures when the sun came out today (well after a drive round the block that took an hour this morning!) Really pleased with the result with the extra pearl blue.

Anyone know what wheels (and possibly size) are on this car?

Thanks
