colour coding ?
« on: August 10, 2007, 04:50:39 pm »
I know it isn't a GT4 but this celica caught my eye for a totally different reason. I thought the green colour was a bit different and he'd even painted his brake calipers the same which you could see through the momo alloys he had but.....

is there really any need to go this far?






wiper arm and wiper backs

I think it looks quite nifty - +1 to him. I'll be doing my wiper arms white soon.

tbh it wasnt painted well either, think it may of been the caliper paint left-overs!

the color is so bright it stands out like a sore- thumb and i reckon it is just as bad as them anodised blue rivet-on aerofoils for your wipers!

I think comparing it to rivet on aerofoils is a little drastic :D

Its better than rusting arms or that dull faded black with time.
