well i already love the look of the car so the colour will stay the same and so will the wheels.

i just wanna make it really really really mint andget her running a nice spec.

i don't want to go a far as seats out roll cage ect, i want a nice standard looking cars with a nice speced engine to match, but it must be made mint.

im going to have all the wishbones, diff casing ect powercoated black ect and hopfully just make a really nice job out of it.

luke - you are aware it is very difficult to match moonstone blue. I think there are 4 different shades. Matching the paint gets more difficult once the car has been sprayed preiously, which on a 3dr cossie is more than likely and this one also have the side mould strips removed already so it can be assumed the car has been painted.
