We got our car back it looks Sweet.
Ive attached some pics although it is hard to get a good pic of the paintwork.
The main colour is black with rainbow glitter through it.
When the sun hits the car it changes colour.

Hi John,
Yep nine letters are OK and Joshua is right however it cost $500.
But all worth it if you can get what you want.

Hi Trent,
The cost varies from car to car depending on how straight your car is.
If you had seen mine before the paint job it was no where near straight.lol got side swiped.
Also depend paint, colour , clear.
Mel a member of the forum done mine and im more then happy with his work.
Would recommend him to anyone.

Hi Steve,
The rainbow glitter is all over the car.
Just so hard to get a full pic of the effect.

Only $500 for a 9 digit plate!!!!!
In QLD its $2200 for a 6 digit plate, we just had a special event where we could pay even more money to get 7 digits! Back to 6 again now, that's the max.
It costs us $440 and we get to choose three letters and two numbers...
We get to keep the plates forever though no re-occuring fees like i think NSW have.
OT:
very nice paint! the pearl looks great |

Hi Luke,
 Holly cow $2200.
Gee we are lucky then.
We get to keep ours as well no more fees to pay.
Ive attached some pics , we got our window tint and mags on thursday.
Tint is midnight black one above illegal.
Once we get the interior done it will look darker.
Mags are CHEETAH.
Thanks luke for your comments, MEL done a great job.
In the bottom pic you can see the colour coming through on the boot spoiler and the door handle.
If you look closer you can see the spec.

Looks great Liz, I like your bodykit and bonnet scoop, really sets it off nicely. I think I have seen your car on the road a couple of times when your car looked prior to the damage. |
