I'm sure you won't do it with normal house paint like I have though :lol:
One bit of advice. Make sure before you spray it that the white bits are all matching. It's not an easy thing to get right first time (hell, I didn't really care with mine). I'd definitely mask up take a step back see if it looks right, measure all the sections, etc. Otherwise it could end up looking very wrong.

I live 2 streets down from a police station and also my work place is in the same area as the main head quarters :lol:
All is legit at the moment (bar the number plate positioning-I think).
-
think the number plate needs to be angled at to be visible from a certain angle, i think its find where it is as its not recessed and visible from a front and angled perspective.
-
well this is the official answer, so make of it what you can interpret.

I was not suggesting that your car was not of a roadworthy state, police round my way would pull your car over because of the way it looks!! But that is because they have got fark all else to do on the island!!

Just wait for the pickup convo! That's gonna be fun for them!
-
Does it turn heads? Fk yes! I'm waiting to receive some pictures taken by people of it at recent shows. Compared to all the pristine and glittering JDM whores there, I'll think you'll find Bert stands out like a genital wart! I was approached by one of the event organisers today at JDM Allstars as I parked up, he told me everyone stopped and said "What- the-FK-Is-that!?".
I was sat chilling in the car and had about 5 separate people stop and have their picture taken with the car(and I was only there for 20 mins!). F**k me, when I get the pickup convo done I'll have people dripping off me I think :lol:
The best thing is, I don't get offended when people say "Err, what a piece of crap" I actually thank them. Parked at the show today directly in front of me was a "cleaned, slammed and ICE'd Passat" so the guy cranked up his bass to get attention, then I got a gorgeous drift weapon park next to me (awaiting pictures!). I'm really surprised how much this car is loved! I had people stroking the bonnet to see if it was really rust. Bert has hit a niche and he and myself love it!

youve decided to follow the general trend of affixing things with screws instead of gaffa tape and super glue?
:shock: say it aint so!
