No diff in colour guys.....but the 'spectra' is never going to be absolutely the same (even on new cars!!), when comparing plastic to metal, as suggested above.

I'm pretty farkin fussy, and I'm still impressed by the finish and final colour!

The metal paint is perfect, with no UV wear or tonal changes.

ah i see, that's why i notice colour difference on my white v35 as well.. and when i showed my car to a mech, he was laughing wat shxt quality car did i imported.. and he start bragging that he could do a better job with the paint and added that 'but it gonna cost u"(with a smile)..

this is the problem, in his workshop(BIG) there was 1 porsche cayman, 1 bmw sport on hoist (i don know wat model, but it's black coupe and super shiny with sexy rims on), 1 S15, 1 evo9... all sexy and stuff... and ... then my lauzy v35 sitting there stock, waiting to be fixed... (tail lights not working)

(also, before i left, another mech walked to him, telling him-the boss, tat *name*'s merc slk will come later tat day..)

the equipments, doesnt look cheap at all, all clean and shiny, never i have seen a workshop that clean.. and mayb that's the reason he charged top price for top job..? *possible

put yourself in my place, when u see this kind of situation, u gotta believe he CAN DO some pretty good job, rite?

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
