ooo yes it works Smile

After rubbing it down, I primed it with plastic primer.

Couple coats of paint from a spray can.

Let it dry, I did slip up once, caught the light wire on the paint and smudged a lot of paint, so had to redo the one side!

Finished, but camera on phone not very good at the time.

Yep its metallic silver, so it has a hint of sparkle to it. As for the dry spray dust there was a lot of it about, but I had all the seats covered so it wasnt too bad cleaning up.

Fancied giving the rear fog lights a make-over

[IMG][Image: IMG-20110528-00119.jpg][/IMG]

Changed the dash lights to white SMD's
[IMG][Image: IMG-20110526-00105.jpg][/IMG]

Dash lights turned to full brightness
[IMG][Image: IMG-20110526-00106.jpg][/IMG]

More will follow, have a list of things done and a list to do and they are about the same size, just wish I had a windfall of money so i could do it all at once.
Next job is to buy paint and get it sprayed up, then I might have a go at refurbing the wheels, never done it before tho.
Ive been hitting the leather with Meguiars leather cleaner and using meguiars upholstery cleaner for the alcantara, and it looks and smells a lot better than it did when I first had the car.
