Painted Trim on NHB?

random_monkey · 12th August 2007, 12:01

Has anyone painted the trim on a NHB? - I've had a bit of a scour but can't find anything... Was wondering if it would be worth it, mostly

All you have to do is look at a Type R to see the effect.
TTDegs did experiment with another method, although not entirely successful

Get a body shop to do the work,you will only regrete it if you do it yourself

Not the standard trim, but I did have a Painted Image Pack Fitted on my NHB yup.

My black RX8 has front and back bottom skirts similar to the Type S,
have tried Back To Black and alternatives, a total waste of time!
if you want them colour coded i would get them painted!

Yep, as Foggy pointed out, I tried DIY - don't

A pro job should be worth while though - for the 2 or 3 days my efforts lasted it did look good
