Check the price of the wide white-walls first...have someone ready to catch you when you faint

That's actually not a bad option. You have to look real close to see the difference

Yeah I've had them on a previous car, they are alright for what they are.

Cheers for photo Mick, that looks cool, nice stance on it too.

Me personally I'd do the bare minimum to it if you plan on tearing it down later. Just means extra sanding later! Save your money and buy real white walls

yeah - i have thought about doing bare minimum to it (which is leave as is) but you know what its like when you get a new toy

Heres a Buick with a very similar hue to your EK with a satin finish, looks great

that buick does look pritty cool. might give that a shot

also looks like i picked up some cruisin' skirts for it too! sweet.

now onto getting some 14s sorted so i can get my whitewalls. Anybody in QLD selling some rims?

How about an old taxi colour scheme?

Bit of a rub back wiith wet & dry and a couple of coats of clear satin should get you there. Simple. Then the jambs will all be the same colour.

Love the buick. Hope my future 2 door project will look as cool.

yeah ekwags thats exactly how i was thinking of doing it...

just have to wait till i get home from work to get stuck into it

I think yr existing colour would look in flat also. I resprayed mine the same colour but flat. (not intentionally )

As for goatees and flat black cars- I grew a goatee after the nineties just cos I always wanted to- I still want a flat black car because I haven't ever owned one - isn't trendy is trendy isn't it?

that light blue colour looks good mate - way better then my dark blue

ive already owned a matte black car - was alright, showed up scratches and finger prints bad tho....used it as a daily while i built my hq.

anyways back onto the EK..... slowly chasing down few bits and peices for the old girl, cant wait to get back from work to get stuck into it.

ordered some flappers for the 13s as a temporary thing untill i get around to getting some 14s.
also ordered a set of baby moons for it...

now the to choose a wheel colour........
