Hi Travis, welcome :)

Great choice there on the RA. Just a word of warning - unless you really, and i mean really, enjoy washing cars don't get black!

I got a demo, so my only choice was black and i already regret how much time i'm gonna have to spend keeping it looking nice, haha. It does look mint when it's clean though!

I moved from a black car to a white car. I think marks show up more obviously on the black car especially when the sun reflects off it.

welcome

Welcome to the club Mr Ralliart! ;)

Go Black! ... actually its a PITA & thin paint doesn't help with stonechips.

So do you have any modding plans for it ? Got quite a few Melb boys with shining examples.

Omg, completely agreed Bill. How ridiculously thin is the bloody paint??? I had stone chips in the bonnet on the first day i drove it (although they may have been there already being that it was demo).

Right now i can't even stand looking at my car because i work in an industrial area and it's completely covered in dust :roll:

Far, far too much effort involved. Good thing black does look so great when it's clean, coz otherwise it would not be worth the effort! :evil:
