Hi all, new to forum other than a post in body bit...

thought would share with you first pics of freshly painted interior (exterior is to be done over the next 7 days) of the cinq i bought my gf...

The colour chosen is Ford's Lady Penelopy Pink used on the street KA to celebrate the thunderbirds movie...

its a lil darker than it is in RL in the pics but still shows what an amazin colour its ganna be!

you see all the B-pillar and C-pillar, and you see some of the wheel arch between the seats, and the boot when you open the boot! :)

with regards to the seats, am re-trimming them in a black/pink scheme along with colour coding all the dash properly black getting rid of all the horrid grey trim

Do have a set of spare red seat belts now thou as got them thinkin would look good with pink, but the black set that came with car will look better, doh! lol
 
looks awesome. i love it. I cant wait to see it when its finished!
 
yup, being pink all over
doing some more primer 2moro as needs a bit thicker primer for sanding, then sanding and next weekend getting the external pink put on
after that, wait a bit for it to go off, give it a polish and then leave for a while, while i holiday in malaga @ the end of the month...
then got september to get her built up, do the interior trim (got some seicento sporting seats to retrim black/pink), get mot'ed n taxed, n jobs a good'un...
then gf just gotta learn to drive in it, lol
 
I am sooooooooo in love with your car!

if I had enough money to get my car resprayed it would definately be in pink (y) (no chance of that tho :( )

dont forget to post more pics for us to drool over :)
 
wow thats ace..certainly a head turner colour :)

.id have a metallic purple respray if i had the money..or white gold metallic...or black metallic...oh hell id have 40 colour fip paint job LOL!! :)

A guy on here done this (fimmo), they found it easier to cut and shut the top half of a cinq bumper with the bottom pat of the sei one. He disguised the joint behind the rub strip. (y)
 
The annoying thing is, i have the complete seicento front end... all the way back to and including the doors...

would all fit, but chasing the bodywork as every thing is more curvey.. ie, cant fit bumper straight on as curvey wings...locate wings, they would offer up, but means door wouldnt go as curvey a-pillar joint on wings, fit the doors and doors wouldnt fit as curvey b-pilar mount on door... bonnets the same, too curvey, lol

n dont fancy faffing with the rear quater to make the curvey door fit on

Good old ebay soon for a complete yellow front end cept bumper, lol

Anyway, inside was all lovely today so masked up and had to do another coat of primer as decided wasnt thick enough, so should have the prep work and outside pink on next weekend!

Got two pics thou taken when i pushed her outside to de-dust but forgot good camera so taken on camera phone... they do show the pink better thou:
