Title: Boothmeisters Tornado Red
Post by: Boothy on May 16, 2009, 05:01:34 pm

Well after searching for quite some time I finally found the car I wanted........ :happy2:

Unfortunately its rained solid since I picked it up until today so I gave it a good clean while I had the chance.

Wanting some new 18's on it though but I'm struggling to find some that I like. The ones I really did like don't appear to be available any more so if anyone has any ideas on what would look good let me know.
 I'm also gonna have the side skirts/front lip colour coded red or I may jump on the Carbon Fibre vinyl bandwagon and have them done in that? Not sure if that would look good or not tho?

Cheers.

damn thats red innit  :grin:

looks good mate, personally i think i would take the colour coded route as the colours so nice it would be good to see more of it, then accent with CF in all the right places ftw

Loving it!  Tornado's the best colour, isn't it!  :happy2:

Do you have any pics of the car at a side angle?  I want to get my rear valance done the same way but I haven't seen a pic from the side as of yet.  I want to make sure the skirts still work in black.

Post by: Boothy on May 04, 2010, 03:20:45 pm

Well after having the multi spoke rims on for a little under 12 months I decided to cough up and get my Monza's sprayed. They should be on the car tomorrow but decided to grab a few picks prior to that.

I've got to admit Steve they look blue in those photos? Weird. I can sure you though that they are definitely grey, well anthracite.

Lost one of my bloody centre caps too (doh!) So its back to the stealers tomorrow for a new set. I just hope they have set knocking about so I can put them straight on!

I had the same thing said to me when i re-done my Pescara's chap.( hense the comment)
Mine were called Boron . Not anthacite colour but very simular to yours :smiley:

I think that colour looks great, and will change in different light conditions. Lighter/brighter days they look brighter then this photo.
If they look like mine did, it goes very well with Red imo.  :happy2:

like this......
