Good or Bad Idea

[Yeomans22]

Hi

 

my mk2 escort goes for new wings etc on the 6th of may and then for an mot, the car will need a full respray, but im thinking of just painting the new parts with aerosols from halfords, just to make it all roughly the same colour, just for the summer, as i need to put a bigger engine in etc soon.

 

it think it would be better to wait a bit until ive got everything how i want it and then have it painted properly.

 

I know it won't look brilliant. what do you all think?

 

Thanks

Paul.

better to have it protected with what you can afford until you can get a full respray

 

if you get a colour match from halfords itll look near-ish and get a respray when you can afford it.

halfords sell the colour in the sprays there,

 

ive just spend £500 on interior and another engine, its gonna be about £300-£400 for the bodywork and then needs an mot, an i should be booking a holiday tomorrow which will prob be another £500, and my daily car needs a cambelt change too. so i think would be better to just DIY it for now,

could always do a satin black job til you can afford

[mrmoo]

ive fitted a new wing on my capri but cant afford to get the whole car done

halfords can i reckon

 

if i started with satin black id want to do the whole car for the madmax look
