Hi all I'm giving my 3xwipers and two Perrin stiffies which are being dipped in carbon, along with air intake fuse cover and alternator cover now I'm confused weather to go carbon or something different for under bonnet?
All opinions and examples are welcome I only have till Monday being tomorrow to decide




This one makes me think hard but not 100%

 

Id definitely go with a bit of colour under the bonnet, just not the weed effect (proper chav). I think it brightens up the bay a bit, and makes it a bit more individual. What style and colour is down to your personal taste though.

 

Can't beat a bit of colour











Nearly finished
Just this to fit sometime




Thanks to hydrotec custom coatings

 

Id go carbon look myself.but its you car and always good see someting different.but as above avoid the weed style reminds me of the chavs i see round town with addicted tracksuits on lol

 

Defo don't want the chavved look that's for sure the green carbon effect looks mint! But I've done inside in this colour




So it looks like my original plan of action which was golden carbon but will wait till 2moz to be 100% the green effect makes me think shall I get a carbon blue done under the bonnet?
Thanks for all the opinions and pics so far please keep them coming as it'll help me decide thanks

 

Where do you get this done and what sort of cost, please?
my eldest tried to do it with a kit at home, but it didn't stick properly in places. Some fell off, the rest was impossible to remove.

 

Hi I'm getting mine done at www.prestigecustomcoatings.co.uk he's from darwen and does it for a full-time job his names Craig top man takes pride in his work he's just done my interior bits and doing outlets next week his number is07739424401 he's on what's app aswell

 

Cost is all depending on what and how many pieces you have done I paid £250 for my interior so far

 

My interior bits before I put them on

 

They look really nice and on phase five of the greenwagons plans I'm going for that sort of look


Carbon candy blue or. Red looks good
Check out hydrotec. Custom coatings fb pages for inspiration
Depends on what colour you will want hoses in the future

 

Zany, what prep do the bits need please?

 

Hi alcazar what do you mean by prep work? I took the trims out separated the buttons vents etc ready prepared to be dipped rest of the handy work was done at prestige coatings in darwen by Craig topman

 

Ah...so you took them to him?
I wonder if there's anyone near me doing it, Scunny? How could I find out?

 

Is hydrotec not near you? You could always post as Craig gets a lot of stuff through the post this week alone he's doing 5 Mercedes trims which come by courier
I always say stick to what u feel confident in doing and spraying etc is not my thing where as I'm comfortable enough to change an engine or anything mechanical on these scoobys with over ten years experience

 

I've messaged him on FB
Thanks.

 

Thanks to everybody for their opinions and saving me from being chavved!!:
Going gold carbon fibre for exterior bits and under bonnet going for blue carbon like the green in the pics above will update in my thread ( journey to my last scoob ) once done should be ready in a fortnight

 

For those trying the link in Post 7 remove the e between custom and coatings

 

Sorry and thanks mate appreciated ^^^^
