Keith,

It looks luverly!!!

Let me know when you're about and I'll buy you a beer! I wouldn't mind discussing how many of your lights work at once (see previous posting a few days ago!).

Cleaner than mine, too

Cheers

Kieth, what's the colour of your car, it seems to be a mid metalic blue, does it have a name? Looks well cool!

That looks like ford azure blue to me . I am very jealeous. I would love to quit my career for a month to lern how to do this properly, but as E3D has said, could this even be done without a spray booth.

P.S. were you using 2 Pack acrylics?

It could be done but would have to be dust free. A friend of mine sprayed his Mini by sealing his garage off this polythene and having a forced breathing mask. It took him a couple of days and was meticulous about keeping the dust out but the results were great.

That colour looks the same as my Mini, Tahiti Blue? Same as GCerbera?

That blue made my heart quiver - the same feeling I get when I see a beautiful woman. I think I need to get out more!

Thanks for the comments guys, the colour is Imperial Blue and I must admit(when clean)the colour is the bees knees (biased opinion of course )
As far as technique goes you will have to ask Paul and his staff at Austec I just chose the lights,(just a quick glance through a recent copy of Sprint...I want that one!! job done..I did a lot of other searches previous to that honest it was just in the magazine at the right moment) dropped the car off and paid my money!! Top job.
