As above really

 

Not 100% But I though Mike R done something along the lines.

 

Cool adrian i will call mike

 

Mike does Candy think he can get normal colours aswell.
I did my own wasnt that a hard job but the candy finnishes do look nice.

 

Mike R's doing one for me...

I genuinely cant remember if I went shiny black or crackle black though! Mike?

 

Could do with buying one out right instead of sending mine off i have bought 2 before years ago one for my escort cossie & another for my saph got them from amber performance they havent got any in stock.

 

You originally asked for gloss black, I persuaded you that crackle looked MUCH better in my opinion, so you swapped to that, and then you phoned back and said that no you DEFO wanted gloss . So this is what it has been finished to.

Just waiting for Churchy to stop being a drama queen, and get out of the hospital to machine it, so I can return it to you .

 

i had candy apple red rocker cover on my engine when I bought the car - no idea who did it or where froom but it lasted and still looked good at the end

gloss black lee!

 

Carlo I got mine from Mike and its the best I have seen.

 

Mike, any chance of seeing this for the weekend?

 

That would be to match the hoses then?

 

 

Gloss black... good choice

 

Any bodyshop can spray it (unless they are real shit obviously) and any machine shop can run a light skim over the top to bring back the shiny alloy bits!

Be ready to sit down for the cost though as genuine candy finishes are very costly and time consuming! It starts as a gold (in most cases) and then the finish is a achieved buy many clear tinted laquer coats in the colour you want, and I do mean many coats!

There are cheaper modern paints that will give u a very near identical finish, well certainly close enough for the eyes of most on here and certainly a rocker cover!
