Nice!

Like the boot-lip spoiler - makes it look unique...

:-)

I see you've got a Talon diffuser!

Thanks Zaphod. Yes it is a talon diffuser. I bought it off of one of the CJ members.

Not sure if I should get the parking sensors colour matched, I kinda like the contrasting look.

I was going to buy a white CJ, but saw the metallic blue in the showroom and 'had a moment...'

The white ones show up mods better (and you can get away with a red Mitzi logo up front...!) - gloss black roof next for yours I reckon. :-)



I've got the Talon sitting in my spare room, ready for a pre-fit on Saturday (hopefully) and painting next week!

*peace*

I took the bumper off todo the headlights, and it made painting it easier, but you could paint the front without removing it. It's a flexi primer on the plastics and and etch on the grille, then a pain on the front, I don't like the semi permanent of plastidip.

Thank you, it's an MR so I had a chrome shroud, so I used a clear primer and then a metallic fleck coat then a tinted deep red clear coat over the top so the chrome still comes through.
