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.

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

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.

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

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

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

https://www.rx8club.com/showpost.php...4&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)

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??

Are you a clairvoyant or something mate?
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 this may give you some ideas.... will be back onto this on monday

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

Is it green yet? Another colour?

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 **** 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 ....

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