That sounds wank.
The orange offsets it nicely, and breaks up what would be a very plain car otherwise. Not your cup of tea? Fine 
It is mine!

The guy i bought it off saw me in McDonalds last night, he was very impressed with how it had progressed!
Although, it has taken a slightly chavy turn now, just spent today putting my undercar neons in.... *Rant away!*

It wasn't too bad, just a case of drilling holes for the bodyclips to clip into, and then tigersealing the kit on!

Clips from Citroen but will cost you an arm and a leg but you could try ebay.
This looks awesome, the work you have put in is awesome too!

Chalkboard cars are amazing. Should have kept the pinky wheels though!

Little update.
Orange paint started to fade! It wasn't as luminous anymore, So i resprayed my grill and wing mirrors, the wheels are up next.
I lacquered them a lot more this time, hopefully they wont fade as much!
I also thought the chalk needed another coat so rubbed down the car with wet n dry, and repainted it all again.
Also did a few little things to the interior, I had the shittiest tax disc holder ever, so I did a small modification to make it slightly easier to look at inside the car!
Before:
After:
My steering wheel was boring me, I'm not sure if I like it yet though.
Decided to tart up the engine bay slightly.
I have an awesome idea for the rest of the engine bay, just need to see if it will work! So watch this space for it!!

Looking good with another coat now mate. I see you've done your engine bay aswell how did you manage to roller it on in there or did you use a brush?

Looks like a good job mate.
Yeah I have already purchased 2 litres of chalk paint going to roller/foam brush all the inside (as my car is stripped) and also do the engine bay so its all one color because my car used to be silver lol.
Happy with the matt black can finish on the outside atm, may roller some chalk on in the future though.

Thank you
I need more power now though, I don't think the 1.1 is cutting it for me anymore! I think I either need to look at a conversion, or swapping it in for VTR/S
