JC600 Posted August 10, 2016 Author Share Posted August 10, 2016 Wasn't happy with the finish on my gear surround and audio surround, the Magnum Grey was too light. So painted my spare set with a different make of Magnum Grey......just need polishing up once hardened. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yunii Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Cheers mate :) Done a nice job on the st170 , looking awesome. Whilst the car was in bodyshop you should have had headlamp washer jets caps in body colour to to blend in.
