Pic Request

[Dan Ingram 1]

Does anyone have a decent pic of a graphite grey 205 with black trim and bumpers? I've only ever seen them with faded grey trim. Also if anyone has a pic of a graphite with black wheels that would be good

Nice number plate.

not what you requested but thought this might be of interest...graphite with grey trim (used trim dye to get the grey back - looked like steves before!!!)

 

prefer it to the black look TBH.

I'm not sure if I should do it black or not. I don't think the grey paint is light enough for it.

Here's my old one:

I could try something with Photoshop. Is graphite = anthracite? And which kind of black wheels would you like to see on it?

[redhair 0]

Just made something...

Sure, it's no masterpiece, but maybe it helps:

Excellent thanks for that. I definitely wont be going for black trim now

 

Any chance you could change the wheels to goodwood style or does anyone have a pic of a graphite on goodwoods?

You don't mean my old Phase 2 do you?

[de Noir 0]

Yes I do... The red one rocks, but me likes steel grey more.

Is that not Steel Grey? I didn't think they did graphite in a Ph2?

I reckon it looked pretty good too (came up well in photos) - when I bought it, it was a total shed. I tidied it up a bit new lights, grill, indicators and good clean up - then sold it on, as it was a bit rough mechanically on closer inspection.

Bugger me I didn't know there was a difference Dan, excuse my ignorance - I just assumed they were the same, but now that you mention it people do refer to Steel Grey and Graphite Grey - I just thought it was different people's description of the colour, learning all the time.!!!!!!! I guess my pic was not required...

Well... A remarkable cleaning, you did.

[Baz 421]

Certainly looks steel that one wjp, looks good!

What did you use to dye the trim black?

[cybernck 402 1 Cars]

I've read that one but it leaves it a bit shiny. Dinos just looks like the factory Ph2 trim.

Ive just sourced a nearly new full set of phase 2 plastics as they were going cheap because one of my front arch trim was knackered, when compared to the phase 1/1.5 painted with the plasticare, theres no difference, so i'd just spend £10 and have the phase 2 look (if you prefer it to grey that is)!

[Dan Ingram 1]

Excellent thanks for that
