Lean green Swedish machine!

[cpikey316_]

Going to do what i've been talking about doing for ages, and painting some of the black plastics green on my Saab!

Started on the wheels, have done the final paint coat and taken a quick preview!



Going to lacquer tomorrow, then start on the other two!

[samass]

Epic! Can't wait to them them on

[Jonny81191]

Looking good! Hurry up and fit them already

Going to lacquer tomorrow, then start on the other two!

*UPDATE* Right, got two of them on the car now! Just sanded and masked the other two, will primer them later on today!

Firstly, I broke my spider



Rear wheel on the car!

[puglove]

HHHmmm not to sure myslef :/

Looks to be a good job though

[Jake]

I like your style!

[ANTB1986]

crazy!!!

[MarkTD]

They look awesome!

[THE_Liam]

Wow, it's slightly less "mid 50's woman" now...

Wow, it's slightly less "mid 50's woman" now...

its the most insane thing a saab owner has ever done!!

You haven't seen my mates 400bhp 9000 have you?

[cpikey316_]

You haven't seen my mates 400bhp 9000 have you?

people think they are so dull, but they can be tuned to be very exciting.

bit like a DT i suppose.

plan to save for some go next. need a steering rack brace first though.

Update #2

Just finished these, not happy with the fit of the foglights though

[Niall]

Thought about dropping a 95 aero engine in? Stealth Vigen would be purely epic!

[cpikey316_]

Gonna play with the 9-3 engine first!

£100 upgrade should get me 45 more bhp

[Niall]

Well look at it this way...,they did put that engine in the 93 Vigen...just very rare and rediculous. Where I used to take mine, he had a mint one that was mapped in a hirsch map to 310bhp and just shy of 400ft torque!

[cpikey316_]

315bhp and 430nm is the highest kit on the site I normally buy parts from. There is a list of replacements parts as long as my arm in that though, and no price! lol

[Niall]

Elk parts? I had such a long list of stuff to buy from there!

[cpikey316_]

neo bros! elk parts shut down

[Niall]

Ah shit. Suppose that was probably because everyone got scared and sold their saabs when they went under!
Neo bros did me a good price when my DI cassette went!

*Update*

Started on other bits today! Using Halfords white primer (which is a bit rubbish, seems to be lots of white dust!)

Black plastic on bumper primered White (going green tomorrow!)



Front bit including little Saab in the middle in white, also going green tomorrow!

[Joe]

any more pics dude? i want my saab back!

[cpikey316_]

No Joe, mainly due to ECP being useless c*nts.

Waiting for more paint. bumper needs another coat or two of green!!

Paint should be here on wednesday.

[cpikey316_]

ECP finally got my paint to me today! So am starting on finishing the paint on the front end! Will post pictures later!!

[cpikey316_]

*UPDATE*

As promised! I've finished the green spraying now. Car is happily sat in the garage waiting for the coats of lacquer tomorrow! But I have a sneak preview for all of you!!

Bumper looks patchy! Im hoping thats just the darkness of the garage!!



Grille + saab!

[samass]

newspaper! so much haha

looks good, maybe do another coat of green? might make it look more even?

[cpikey316_]

Its got 6 coats Samass! Im thinking itll look better in the light!

[samass]

oh right! maybe so then haha

[Eeyore]

not sure i like it myself. Mate has done a similar thing with an MX5 with red bits. Looks awful on his!
