Bought myself the RS Spoiler a while ago and decided to get it painted Anthracite like the sport models have..
Sadly the rest of my colour coding was silver as it should in this picture..
So i have this really nice coloured spoiler which doesnt match the rest of my car.. :/
Rang up my main man who does my fitting and painting
£70 he quoted me.. i said ide take the bits off myself so he made it £60.. i thought hmm, it will be worth it!
Took them off, was abit of a scary strugge as i didnt wanna break nothing..
The wing mirrors were easy enough, just pull the mirror out and push the clips out..
The foglights were on abit tougher.. had my wheel off looking around making sure i wernt gonna break anything and i just couldnt push the clips through..
In the end i got annoyed and pulled on one really hard and the clips came through fine they and kind of rubbery.. and it was warm so they were softer too..
Just took a pic to show the clips if you can see.. just takes abit of gentle force ;D
So i gave them to get painted, he had them 2 days as he was kinda busy.. went to pik them up and they looked awesome!
How showed me that while one of the foglights were drying it fell off the side and left a small imperfection in the paintwork which he wasnt happy about.. he said i could take it back anytime to get it fixed for free whenever i wanted.. but for now i just wanted them on my car
Its barely noticeable so ill leave it for a while till i go back for something else.. He charged me £45 in the end! Was sooo happy with the result and it matches perfectly with my spoiler now..
Only a little change but i think it makes a large difference! Makes it look slicker in the dark ;D
The only problem now is the wheels! i was planning on spraying them cheap anthracite myself, but ide rather just wait for alloys
Hopeing for some anthracite 182's!
