some more pics of my s1 rep xr3 turbo!!!!!
If i was you i wouldnt paint an original s1 BLACK because they are getting rarer by the day,it will DE-value the car and technically it wont be genuine so you should sell urs and just go the same route as i did.!!

Erm. It's a bit lat eto be worrying about originallity as it's been completely stripped, caged and has a lairy Zetec Turbo motor going under the bonnet.

He's gone this far he may as well paint it a different colour
