Had my Aristo at a local workshop, having my exhaust customised and a power steering leak attended to. Get a call from them today, they were taking the car for a test drive and bam - they've wrecked the front bumper.

They've offered to pay for it, but ffs - I've done less than 100km with the bumper on - it's a brand new paint job.

So yeah, not happy Sad

With the custom mix number plates, where you have a number in amongst the letters, you can't get slimline plates - I definitely slimlines Smile

ah man, I've been umming and aahing about a full respray - the problem is, I can't come up with a colour.

I don't want something garish, but I figure if I'm gonna do a full respray - it should be something pretty full on.... I love black, but if I want a black Aristo, I can just import one!

agreed - black is the best colour, followed by white.. havent seen many resprayed aristos (in colours other than factory) that look good.

p.s. hi everyone and thanks for lending me the seat aaron!

Why not try black with serious pearl action?

My old soarer was based black and had red wine pearl... at night it was pimp black, but when light hits, it all changes.... I loved it, but its all personal preference.

IMO, black or high gloss white FTW.

PS- great work on the site!
