Hey guys
Am getting a quote for colour coding tomorrow, but cant wait for the finished product, and want to see what it looks like.
I also have absolutely no idea how to use photoshop!
Would like to see what it look like with:
-bump strips, door handles and black skirts coded, and
-just the skirts coded, leaving handles and bump strips black. Saw this on another astra, thought it looked alright.

Cant decide which way to go.

Cheers in advance!

Ohh righto, good to know. Wierd they put incorrect colour information on the stickers. Or maybe just lazy!
Ive seen your thread, looks the goods! But wanted to see what black bump strips and handles looked like still black. I.e just the skirts painted.

I disagree mate, you've done well! Cheers for doin that.
I reckon I'll go for the full colour coding though. I dont mind it like that, but might as well do the job in full!
Thanks again Sooty
