Aidan Posted September 12, 2009 Last night i enlisted the help of Blitz to do my red lip on my wheels, here are the results: The Tape glows when light is on it, a sort of orangey red colour.

Aidan Posted September 12, 2009 Yeah, after i came out the cinema at like midnight last night, the light made it so you could see 2 orange rings lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coupi Posted September 12, 2009 Certainly does glow! Looks top notch if you ask me, although those dirty arch liners and black bumpers still need sorting! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aidan Posted September 12, 2009 Yeah it needs a wash ;p And the bumpers need a sprayin' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coupi Posted September 12, 2009 When your cars had its bumpers sprayed its gonna look ace! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aidan Posted September 12, 2009 Yeah when its colour coded im also planning on smoothing the boot + bonnet so should be a looker lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coupi Posted September 12, 2009 Remove the boot handle too? Or colour code it? Coloured coded mirrors? I was about to say door handles after looking at your avi, but then saw your sig! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aidan Posted September 12, 2009 Remove the handle and have a boot popper. Colour code the mirrors aswell. And i sprayed handles myself Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Coxy Posted September 17, 2009 I'll take credit for this idea :wink: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ninosport Posted September 17, 2009 unfortunately Fisher said to do it to mine instead of buying some alloys that look similar but i dont think that it will be done anytime soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TM002 Posted September 17, 2009 That looks realy smart! where can I buy that tape from from? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BLiTZ Posted September 17, 2009 Halfords, its in the motorbike section ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Woody27 Posted September 18, 2009 Any idea if they do yellow? :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coxy Posted September 18, 2009 They do Woody yeah! :) This is proper 3M good stuff. It's the only stuff I've ever found that will stick to satin powder coat so it's good! :thumbsup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Woody27 Posted September 18, 2009 Saweet! Quick questions, price? I guess it comes on like a roll? One enough for 4 x 15" wheels? O and sorry forgot to say, red lip looks good! Maybe red calipers would look cool too or maybe too much? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coxy Posted September 18, 2009 Comes on a roll, with an applicator (but dont use it lol). Costs about £8 (bit of a rip off but hey). Enough to do 4 19" wheels. :thumbsup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Woody27 Posted September 18, 2009 Cheers mate you're a legend! Tbh I'd pay £8 when the time comes to save hassle of ordering online etc. Thinking satin black wheels with yellow lip for the 5 btw (if anyones interested :p). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jason.s Posted September 18, 2009 Nah red calipers would suck arse. Be overkill and its too common. Keep them black. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coxy Posted September 18, 2009 No worries. Agree with jason red calipers is a no go. Looks great with the nuts and lip and car colour but anymore would be too much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Woody27 Posted September 19, 2009 Yeah fair enough, like I said it may be overkill. Personally I wouldn't have gone for coloured nuts as I dont think they really work that well as a colour match in red. Other colour anodized nuts seem ok but red always come out pink :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
