Default graphics or no graphics ???????

hi fellas,
havent really been able to use the pc much but managed to grab 5 mins, met up with a few of you back a few months ago - lee, simon, kev, paul....etc etc at the pontypridd rally and motorsport day on the 10 of oct 2009.
i will one day go to the meets at the toby in, if i can get time of work.

right, i will be re-painting my car it in a month or so (when it warms up a bit) and dont know weather to replace the graphics or not..

i have added pics of the car as it is now and one pic of the car before the graphics were put on, let me know what you think lads, graphics or no graphics.

the pics can be seen in the all new 2010 welsh owners thread.

cheers gar

Hi mate, im only up the road from you, see the car regularly. I think the car will look great in just plain white to be honest, something special about a white classic!

Catch you at one of the meets

Just looked at your pics mate. The one without graphics looks great but i see why you put some on it in the first place. Maybe some smaller sti or rally graphics on the lower doors or something would look cool so it doesnt stand out as much??

thats me fella

box is still working fine (even with NO oil in it !!!!!!) so still waiting for it to explode before fixing it lol.
engines presurising now but could be the bottom hose freezing up as its been stood in the garage for the last few months,

the plan is to give it a compleat make over but waiting to have the money to do it in one lump or it will end up 1/3 or 1/2 done and would loose intrest and end up selling it for silly money

i know its a nightmare, i managed to buy 2 ltrs of 2pack paint to tidy mine up, just waiting for the weather to warm up a little before doing it.
still running the wrx box and rear diff in mine at the moment but will be refiting the ra box in couple of months but i was wondering if i could take fifth gear out of the wrx box and put it into the ra box , cross that bridge when i get to it .


i will hopefully be able to make it to one of the meetings soon, so might see you there .

Im in Cwmbach mate, used to live in Mountain Ash though. I know the white one, its the ra-r, lovely car! Mine doesnt come out much in the week these days as i use the wifes Polo but i have had it almost 4 years now so surprised we havnt crossed paths in it. The times i have seen you i think i have been in the Polo to be honest, i will have to take it out more often.

ie, hair dryer or blow torch (dont hold them to close)
