Another old thread.... Daughter has still got the Calais and it has just got a new paint job, I have gone a custom mix of Sherwood green with a darker metallic grey instead of the silver.
Started 2 weeks ago with rubbing the paint down, fixing a few little "car park" dings



Just finished painting it today.




Just needs to sit for a few weeks then a cut & polish.

Cars all put back together now and looking swisho



I like the subtle colour change, the Sherwood green has 45% more black added to darken it and the silver bottom has been changed to Audi Pewter.
Inside & out now are perfect.

Looks good. Did you paint it yourself? Good to see you having a go.

Yep all the panel work, paint & interior was done in the shed.
It has come up a treat.

That's great I love seeing people have a crack at it themselves. Big job nothin makes you prouder than seeing a massive change such as a respray.
