Hey we have enough trouble trying to keep our "all blacks" out of make up. At least they aren't nudin up at the drop of a hat!

that wouldnt be a secret anymore..... would it :rolleyes:
nah, its just a full respray, and abit minor custom stuff here and there, nothing special :)

e

what colour?

Great pix Ezzy. :)

Very interesting to see her in her corsets like that - gives us a better idea of how they're built.

Are you changing the colour? If so, what to?

Keep the pix coming please.

White!!!! Plz :D

I know...., Since his exchange with sweetie-pie, he's changed sides.......This the new colour EZZY? :p

Gomez.

LOL :D :D :D

Knowing Ezzy, I can say that it will be as equally eye catching but not quite so....... feminine?

I'm sure Ezzy will reveal his colour choice in due time. ;)

See people..... that's what happens when you park your car in Bankstown. :)

Rofl!!

http://members.optushome.com.au/dr_nrg/random/bankstown.jpg

Nah that can't be Bankstown, because if it was, all the panels and the interior would be missing. :)

Must be one of the "wannabe" suburbs like Auburn or Greenacre. :D

they really stole the cops tyres?

ROFL :p :p :p

Two words for you : Photo Shop (or is that really one?)

will be "colour testing" with my painter this week.

the colour is a "happy/bright" type colour ;)

No I think it will be PINK :D

You've hit the nail on the head with that one Sherlock! :)
For a sneak peak have a look at Ezzy's site (http://www.ezzy-style.com.au/esmcustoms/esmcustoms.html), it'll be very close to that.

Sorry Ezz for spilling the beans, the excitement is too much for me to contain. ;)

Please ... the Monaro Orange... OMG :eek:

LET step back to the 90s

haha im pretty sure its photo-chopped but there was a period of time in bankstown where wheels were a popular item among theives, it wasnt uncommon for them to jack up the car and just steal the wheels haha
i guess now they're more advanced and clean out the rest of the car ;)

Wheels are still popular, but not as popular as Recaros from a Type R or a T28 turbo from a 200SX. :p

Monaro orange?
get the Lambo Orange :D ;) It's better colour :)

hahahaa...

none of the above ;)

it will def. be a custom made colour, possibly with some effects 9depends on how much time we have) :D it wont be as bright as my other mazda though ;)

e

ps. thats okay paul, apology excepted :) ;) :D

Does anybody know roughly how much a good quality full respray would cost?

Presumably if you want special effects or metal flake paints, or whatever, you can spend as much as you want.

I've no plans to change my colour any time soon - I love my cheery Lightning Yellow. :)

But I'm planning to keep the car for many years, so the idea of occasionally 'renewing' its looks sounds appealing. Either with a similar colour, or maybe even something completely different. At least it sounds good until I find out just how much that might cost, I expect. ;)

Anybody know a rough figure for a full respray with regular style paint, please??

Oh please don't do the 2 Tone paint thing... i think it looks Super RICE.

White Pearl Would be Cool ;)

EZZY,

What do you have to do, in RTA or legal wise, to get your car painted?

Taka

im pretty sure as long as its not chrome its all good, people seem to paint their cars 2 tone or whatever all the time

Oh please don't do the 2 Tone paint thing... i think it looks Super RICE.

:confused: Please give us an example of this "super ricey" two tone paintjob.

Oh please don't do the 2 Tone paint thing... i think it looks Super RICE.

:rolleyes: :confused:

White Pearl Would be Cool ;)

why would you do a colour that's available from the factory... even tho we dont get it here.... yet?

e

EDIT:
taka, here in NSW, all you have to do is go to RTA and tell them what your new colour is.
when i got my other mazda resprayed the first time, a cop pulled me over and told me that how come the RTA database says my car is still white..... i said i just got it painted so he changed the colour code for me from the cop car :D

The 2 tone colour what i meant is the one when you flash different light angle will change colour. Such as Green, Purple, Gold, etc

The 2 tone colour what i meant is the one when you flash different light angle will change colour. Such as Green, Purple, Gold, etc

You mean "chameleon" or colour flip paint, not two tone.
BTW, that's not considered "rice" in Sydney, more "Habib-style". ;) :p :D

lol For me. Rice is something flashing my Eyes hahahaha :D :p

those "chameleon/ flip" paint are getting more affordable now.

when PPG first started back in 1999, it retailed for $1,000 a litre, had an opportunity to do in that kind of colour for the sponsorship, but decided to go with gold/orange with marble effect,.

now you can get these type of paint for cheap, from different companies of course.
"chameleon/ flip" paint is for ppl who cant make up their mind :D

e

How's the project going Ezzy? Any more pics please??

Will we get to see any of the car all masked up, or any of the in between stages, or will you just be posting a TADAAAA! pic when it's done?

It would be great to follow the progress of the job, if you could be bothered taking some more pictures.

Cant wait to see how it looks!

have spent the past few days rubbing inside the doors, door jambs, under bonnet, under bonnet, beaver panel and couple of bits and pieces. tomorrow we will start on the outside and hopefully on friday we can do some colour(s) testing..... there might be a change of plan ;)

i will be taking some pics..... if i remembered :D

C'mon mate, you've got to rub yourself up on the bare metal to feel out for any surface imperfections, or so they say. :p

hahahaaa.....

done most of the outside, still have the front/rear bars and two front guards to go tomorrow.
slight change of plan...... wont be going orange anymore :D

http://www.ezzy-style.com.au/esm8respray8.jpg

He must be thinging pink.... :D

I think the black cherry mica is good.

slight change of plan...... wont be going orange anymore :D



SLIGHT change of plan!! :D

Oh, of course, now I've realised what you mean.... you've seen the light and are going for Lightning Yellow. :rolleyes:

Thanks for the progress pic. Can't wait to see the next stages. :)

Oh, of course, now I've realised what you mean.... you've seen the light and are going for Lightning Yellow. :rolleyes:

Ezzy's changed his colour choice due to it no longer being unique..... someone in the US has done an orange one already.

So the chances of him doing a "common" colour like yellow is unlikely. :rolleyes:

PiNk has also been done before...

How about the Moonstome blue you see in the Peugeot 206?

yellow.... no bloody way mate, that would have to be the last colour i'd do, i'd even go back to black than have it done in yellow :cool:

pink.... not me mate, i know someone is INTERESTED in it ;)

dark purple was on my list, but not anymore.

orange, someone has done it, and come to think of it, since my last two full resprays were orange i think its time for a new colour.

moonstome blue... is that similar to winning blue, if yes, NO, if no, NO :D

nah, maybe i should just go back to BLACK :D

UPDATE: all rubbed, chasing up a colour tomorrow to see if it is available in the effect we want. also, may get my air-saw out and cut something out tomorrow ;) :eek:

I KNOW! :rolleyes:
















BLACK! :D

Why don't you use "my" colour choice Ezz? ;)

Why don't you use "my" colour choice Ezz? ;)

what is it? is it still a "top secret"? can i let other ppl know? :p
its unethical to "steal" other ppl's colour choice ;)
you can keep it and maybe have it done one day ;)

Nah, it's not a secret anymore, I revealed it here:

http://www.rx8club.com/showpost.php?p=605894&postcount=19

When you let me know how cheaply I can get it done for, I'll decide whether I'm gonna do it. (wink, wink, nudge, nudge) ;)

well see what i can do :cool:

There's a big range of possibilities in the green range. The 'standard' green looks interesting (although I've never seen one, except in photos). But it's way up one end of the many possibilities of green.

Does anything in the green spectrum look of interest??

Does anything in the green spectrum look of interest??

Are you a clairvoyant or something mate? :confused:
Ezzy and I were discussing this today.
Guess great minds think alike..... but it won't be anything like the standard Nordic Green if he chooses to go this way.

green is on the top of my list atm. i have always wanted a green car :D
waiting for the paint supplier to get back to us with the colour/effect we are after.
we are likely to go with candy apple green, but who knows, we may get a different type of paint all together :)
one thing for sure is that it wont be anything like mazda nordic green or holden hot house green ;) it will be a custom made "ezzy green" :D

UPDATE: went into the workshop for abit today (thanks to nojooc...), took out my air-saw and did something :eek: this may give you some ideas.... will be back onto this on monday ;)

http://www.ezzy-style.com.au/esm8respray9.jpg

Does it look alright on there Ezz?

Does it look alright on there Ezz?

yeah, it will look "different/custom" once its all done mate ;)

ps. you wont be able to see it properly cos i have "heavily blurred" the pic a few times... plus its not finished yet, alot of work required.... thought it was going to be quite esay... :p

It probably would have been easier for me to have ordered the entire guard so that you could cut and weld it. ;)

Any progress reports on this intriguing project, please? :)

Is it green yet? Another colour?

Ezzy any chance of making the Euro style spoiler i believe there would be a lot of interest in it from other forum members . :)

Right on, Lock. I'd definitely buy a lip spoiler at a sensible price Ezzy.
(have you seen what they charge in the U.K.?)

sorry boys no update atm.... the 8 has been sitting on its arse at the same spot for the past week (been away on a mini holiday and other bits and pieces).
the new deadline will be around new years, when we can shut the workshop while ppl are on holidays and go nuts on the 8 :D

anyway, i have been "playing" with some parts of the 8, things like guards, euro spolier, gauage pods etc.... hopefully they will be available for the australian market sometime next year, i have no idea how much the euro spolier is :confused: ....

now im deciding if i should "work" on the factory bars or "work" on some aftermarket kits :rolleyes:

umm... before you all get too excited, no the 8 isnt done yet :p , but it is too far away.... ;)

just a quick update...

got new plates last week, but its useless without the 8 :D

and today..... finally decided what colour i want ;)

http://www.ezzy-style.com.au/esm8testorange2.JPG

http://www.ezzy-style.com.au/esm8testorange3.JPG

it will be applied over sparkly silver base..... but then again..... when its time to do it, i might have changed my decision again :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Hmm, copper looking colour eh?
You definitely love orange don't you Ezz? :D

you should have started with the silver rx-8 to save you time :rolleyes:

You definitely love orange don't you Ezz? :D
oh yes baby, bring it on anytime :p i love it :D this will make my third orange full respray :p
this time we will do a straight colour, later on may do a 2 tone effect, and after that may add some "normal" airbrusing... all in different shades of orange :D


you should have started with the silver rx-8 to save you time :rolleyes:

nah... good point though, but who'd trust mazda paint anyway :rolleyes: (only if you knew :D )..... my 8 (brilliant blk) was the ONLY brand new 8 i could find in sydney back in december 2003, plus the factory silver isnt sparkle enough, it wouldnt bring out that richness/shine i want ;)

Going back in time EZZY.. it is only 2 years ago when the world is full of that orange commandore on the street :p

Love that colour... at least it is not a 2 shade purple and green :D

hahahaa.. i like that taka :D
my first orange was back in august 1999
the second orange was in april 2002
and the third orange will hopefully in jan 2005 :D

Love that colour... at least it is not a 2 shade purple and green :D

yuk..... dont think its possible to put purple and green together :eek: eww....

I think it is a better choice than the shinka special edition with the Ebony black cherry mica and beige interior :rolleyes:. It is perfect though for hte blond lady with long leather boot on the website :p
