Scottish Elises

The time came along where i felt like being a bit different as well as treating myself so i came up with the idea of a paint job. I looked at so many colours, every one was an option, then i settled on this one...

Just a reminder on how she looked before the make-over...



Then she went in and started with the rub down...




Then the colour went on. I was really happy with my choice in the end and yes, there are a few pics cause she changes colour that much!!!

straight out the paintshop before going anywhere...











then after buying ross's wheels it was time to put them on!




(yes i was hungry after cleaning her with the evidence showing! ooops)

so thats her transformation. i absolutly love it!!! might not be everyone's taste but i'm happy!

at least you like it


seriously though, everybody is different, i mean, i like the look of my car and its a total shed.


i bet it'll be a barsteward to keep clean

i m not a big fan of that kind of paint but i think it looks really good on your car.

i also like the front splitter! (something i want for my elise in the near future)

Looks good But id be going for the wheels in black to really finish it off


Which bodyshop did you use for the respray?

I know not everyone likes that kind of paint job, but I really like it! Looks great! But I'm with Jon on the black wheels recommendation!

I always feel that pictures never do that type of paint justice, and I to am with Jon on the black wheel's it would really set it off.

from me

thank u for the comments its always good to have positive feedback , it was just a little garage next to the marquee in dundee. He didnt really know how to take some of the bits off as he'd never wrked on an elise before so i learnt a lot too was in there most days. Kinda missed driving her as it took 4 whole weeks .

Might think about the idea of the black wheels

only one comment : get that roof off

Not sure if the camera is doing the shade & shineyness justice - is it green or purple ?. Get some high res ones up on photobucket or similar

Been taking lots of photos but they come out really dark will need to invest in a good camera my phone doesnt cut it

Its a tvr colour flip green to purple saw a similar colour on russ swifts tvr

Looked great when i saw it the other day, even the wife commented on it, which is saying something, easy ti spot now

sweet.

I like.....I also agree with black wheels idea!

get those wheels coated black!


or maybe even chromes?!

Lovely paint job, but you could get £750 for the hard top on eBay, and enjoy the sun.

What do you plan on doing with the original wheels?
