Like the over riders tim! Think now though you should move the outer fog lamps towards the centre, so they are all evenly spaced and close together. That setup always seems to suit sportspacks with over riders more  On a different note, what did you paint the block with? It looks awesome, and I'd like to have a similar effect on mine. It looks quite metallic, how has it held up over the years? |

The metallic paint was Plasticoat it lasted pretty well, the spots and fogs are on the original holes and brackets so if I move them I'd have to drill new holes

Cool, any idea where I can get hold of it? I really wanna paint my block, but have always found the common colours too bright and flat. I'm slowly shining up my engine bay and the block colour seems to make a big difference.

You can get it from any DIY place but put a good high temp lacquer over it.

Oh right, you can get high temp laquer then can you? I looked for some when spraying the snobby one's radiator, but all halfords had was normal and petrol protected for bike tanks. Really then I could paint it any colour with the right kind of laquer?

It took me ages to find this car/colour combination, not many sportspacks made in this colour.
