Okay so when the time comes that i want to get the panels fixed on my car, I think of what i want.
I need a new bonnet, and left hand gaurd.
The front valance can be straightened out.
He said the bonnet can be too... but i'll get to that in a sec.

So i've got like not much of the green paint left.
And i'm scared that they wont have enough to do the bonnet, gaurd, and whatever else.
So... i'm thinking of getting a bonnet and getting that painted WHITE.
And also the scuttle panel painted white up to the windscreen.
The bonnet would then house some ricer stickers... for something a bit different and not seen on too many minis.

If they straighten out the bonnet, then they will not need to paint the whole thing whereas if I supplied them with another one then they obviously would.

The whole WHITE idea is if they say they can't do all the panels they need to paint with the paint that i still have.
And i'm worried that they may not be able to match the paint - as its not a very common colour.

But included is a very poor chop.
Tell me what you think about it.
Insults more than welcome - gives me ideas.

Thanks.

No, not with green.
Double no if the green is metallic.

i tripple the No's.....

but sorry dont have any other suggetstions. the colour of your
car would be hard to find another colour to go with it.
I had quck thoughts of silver and then do the roof as well
but that would still maybe look a little how you going.

Hmmm poor Will, good luck, my vote is all the same and get the
colour matched as best as possible :wink:
