As im off for the weekend i went back to the garage to get the payment details of the fella whos spraying it as ill be away for the next fews weeks with work again:(.

Anyway he was in the middle of getting it flatted and polished, OMG what a difference, im so happy its an understatement, the quality in work is unbeliverble, taking into account that the sprayer comes in at 7am and leaves last, hes taking his time but iv told him too, as tbh im in no rush to get it back, so he said he world do, and make it a job he'd never forget, :awesome:

Anthersyt Black is the colour, so basically its a very very dark Grey and dont worry iv got the paint code before anyone asks :D

so the next bunch of pics will be the finished article all buffed,waxed,fully valeted and dust free.:)

Why didn't you get the IX bumper before you had it all painted ?

Oh and you appear to be missing a cooling fan ?! :)

well tbh i was going to just stick with the 8 rear bumper, but im not sure what to do atm because i might just get a custom rear diffuser made for it,:D

and yep thats right its the A/C fan thats missing as iv removed it, im getting a Koyo rad and will be running 2 slimline fans on the engine side:razz:
