OK we're still trying to get paint... if this turns to shit by midnight tonight (when all stores close I think) we'll cruise instead. No point getting everyone out with all the equipment if only 1 person has paint I'm p'eed off!

Anyone REALLY close to a shop? I'll go red if possible, otherwise I'll just spectate and lend a helpin hand Sorry d00dz

Farkin, just went to the places and NONE of them have it I'm pissed off now... this sux! Not good news at all

This is what I've been told you need (things you apply) 1) Brake Cleaner 2) Hi Temp Caliper Paint 3) Hi Temp Laquer That will give it the glossed/anodized look you are after and will make it last a long time. As for all the other stuff, it's pretty obvious: sandpaper, newspaper, masking tape, bla blah blah Paints and Laquer are in a can, so spray. I don't think it'd work too well with a brush unless you were an artist to begin with

Man, get your own brake cleaner I'm only gettin' paint for everyone, otherwise I'll have tonnes of stuff on a credit card (too high a risk sorry)

Going to hit up the car shops this afternoon when I get off work... Praying for Gold paint, but if not I will get Red. Will pick up 10 cans of Gold if there is a supply

Good cruise... great turnout; strong represent from SAU Managed to save d00dz from a new paint job Only wish Dave had listened in on our convo (hope it comes off ok) Someone spilt coke on my rims at Brooky ah well, maybe they were getting all wobbly at the sight of my dish :lol: Well done to the organizers!

I have GTT rims.... what you need them for if you don't mind me asking?

NICE I like em.... good, one less person with my rims

I was thinking 22" Dolce's... you guys ever seen them? Saw one on a Ford Territory today, looked ok Ok who wants impuls And wilch, ladies first

Once dish, always dish

Jealousy will get you no-where Wilch

Yeah I was thinking I would replace them with adjustables and drive straight to the wheel alignment. Problem is that I need to get my hands on a press (if what you are saying is correct) Will give it some thought, sounds easy enough and the wheel alignment place is 5 minutes away

So adjustable castor rod and lower control arms are the same thing? Also, would you guys reccomend putting in adjustable castor rods at home if it only takes 10minutes? How much chance is there that something could go wrong?

Send me photos please... very interested! [email protected]

Give me a bell if you do find Gold otherwise I'll just go get Red on Saturday

I had a shop around today at about 4 places on the beaches... all negative They said Gold was the rarest color in the range! The supplier is in Brisbane for VHT paints and they don't deliver until 15th Jan! If there is a place that stocks them, best to just grab em... people here want them for sure My back up plan is Red which they have tonnes of.

Well from the sounds of it we have got it covered... if everyone brings what they say they'll bring then it's sweet!

Thanks for all those people who have PMed and paid... DVDs have been sent out Enjoy!

oh yea, i've also made up my mind that if I can't get Gold by Saturday, I will go with Red Otherwise I'll be left paintless....

No I meant driving to the actual place... DO NOT SPEED! Especially on the freeway before the turnoff, they will be there for sure

Sure, would you like coke and fries? The whole idea of this is to DIY !!!

WOOT Duncan in the house I can provide esky on the day if needed... beverages NOT included! Just a word of warning for those travelling there alone, don't speed. Our area is choc-a-bloc with coppers during X'mas time.

Thanks mates....

We'll most probably meet at Chatswood train station... where the taxi ranks are, plenty of stopping space there Bad news guys, I've been to 3 auto places and GOLD is all out Only colors are Black, Red and Blue.... I think I might go Red
