Refreshing the EK

Post by Trev »

Need minor rust repairs done so a fresh look is in order me thinks :thumbsup: .

Done a bit of photoshoping with the help of DR.
Need some idea's for colours, keeping in mind I need something that has purple on it so I don't have to change the interior.
Some ideas from DR and me using DR's car (with mine behind it) and a drawing by Scotty (for jimmy)

I think if its grey it should be shiny otherwise it would look too much like primer.

top pic does it for me 8) even with the flat grey but as has been said could be misstaken for primer, kinda don't mind 3 aswell but the wheels look a little wild

i've always had a thing for a silver EK a bloke i knew had one years ago and i loved it, so silver could be a thought with the purple in 1st pic
sometimes yor just better off shitting in yor hands and clapping

I'm liking the green one 8) 8)

The purple and yellow is a bit too 'Passiona"

Wow!

:lol: classic!

What about extending the roof colour to include the A, B and C pillars?
