Well i am currently out of work and my cousin wants his Hyundai coupe spraying so i said i would do it for £200 including materials, and it gives me something to do other than look for a job
This is what it looks like at the moment as std
There are a couple of small dent in the bonnet which i am planning on smoothing out and once the car is resprayed a different colour, then i am having a go at spraying the std alloys white.

I have managed to strip the car down today and advised any amatuer to stay well clear of hyundai coupe's
they are a bitch to take apart, the design of the mounts and fixings must have been created by stevie wonder they are appauling design.
some pics of her stripped abit ?
best get in touch with ma cousin ask him what colour he wants it spraying
