Now that's a brave choice, but I like it - Link

That's stunning.

Bloody hell, someone has been driving around with standard headlights for since 1996. They must have eyes like an owl!

Looks nice, I like it.

Nice colour shame it needs paint work already

That is very nice, makes me even more keen on plastidiping mine.

"WHILE SOME TOOL WAS LEFT ON ENGINE"
I think this should read "When some tool left something on the engine and shut the bonnet"

Hmm not bad - but I'd be lost not being able to polish!

I'm sure some mention of belts etc would be nice for 4k! I know it's low mileage and looks stunning but....

not really a fan of the matt look!
however it does look nice and unique.
now a coupe with tvr style colour change paint could be truly awesome!

It does show off the unique lines on the Coupe

Personally I think it looks crap on a TVR, but as with everything each to their own!

my thoughts are the paints expensive and would in the right colour suit the coupes unique appeal this new direction of matt look makes cars look cheap and unfinished imo!
or crap as you say!

Oh dear...............

Didn't the Rover 200 have similar paint? I'm not a fan of matt paint either, so not arguing with your comment on this colour!

i like it and have just seen a mk1 focus rs in the same colour

I think it is amazing! But agree with muzzie 4k is a lot for no mention of belts and other big jobs,but I would like this one!

I like it to look at. But it's not for me

It joins the ranks of other chavved up old mattmobils, lower it an inch from the road and the look will be complete.

Eh? It looks standard save the bumper, but then there are loads of this style on The forum.

It looks very subtle to me. The striped one elsewhere is what i would describe as chavved up. All just a matter of personal opinion though, i've spent a great deal of time returning mine to its completely standard frog on a skateboard look.

So many chavs down here in matt shitters, guilty by association IMCO (in my correct opinion)
I view it now as a classic, (not a future classic) and should therefore be treated that way, ie. with respect.

Very local to me but never seen it about. Not sure about the matte paint but nice to see one that's been cared for nonetheless.

Vinci Grey Fiat Coupe owners: get that Lambo look by cleaning your car with a brillo pad

Your going to hate mine when it's finished
I really think people have a lot of misconceptions of people who modify there cars, chav is police slang for council housed and violent and simply does not apply to most car modifiers.
It's a tradition that's as old as the hills, people don't turn there noses up at a beautiful '50s hot rod but back in the day i'm sure there were some people who just didn't get it and thought they were all ugly and anyone who drove one was a hooligan.
These cars are not sacred, they are mass produced and will never be exactly as everyone would have designed it themselves. I'm all for preserving pristine low millage examples for future generations but if you think it looks better with carlos fandango wheels and an ironing board on the back then do it, it's your car!

LOL, I think I'll stick to my micro fibre cloth

The front bumper, grill and rear bumper lip are all Zender

The wings are aftermarket vented ones.

I think it's tastefully modified (like mine ) and looks very nice

agreed theresa! stylings spot on just it looks like its in primer &
my brain doesnt compute this as a finished look!!
must be getting old!

Jimbob13..... Frog on a skateboard look??? That's funny.... Made me laugh
James5....... Well said..... Each to their own.

It will no doubt surprise people to know...

that *I* actually quite like it.

Not sure I'd do mine like that, but that's well done and reasonably subtle... though, somehow it looks, er, polished! Could just be the light/photography, I suppose, but polished matt?
