Re: White Grande Sporting

this is only a temporary thing, thought i'd play with the camera too
White look really nice.

I've been offered a new White Mjet Sporting from my dealer at a good price. Can you tell me whether the white has a lacquer top coat or do I need to do something to protect it?

Pity that I really want to put those protector side strips on the car, looks much better without. But it really is a necessity these days.

But I also want to put on a decal of some sort (factory fitted). The Italian flag one looks nice, what do you all think?

Re: White Grande Sporting

not a fan of the flag decals but its your car so its what you prefer, thats quite steep think they've gone up a bit, i have no problems not having the bump strips on the side and i park in a supermarket car park every day, i like to think im quite careful too when opening the doors,
 
Re: White Grande Sporting

Course its laquered lol what car doesnt come laquered nowadays lol

Well I wasn't sure so that's why I asked! But I'm glad I did, so thanks for confirming that.

But another question: has anyone got reversing sensors (factory fitted, not after market). If so, are they colour-matched or just naff black?

BTW that price on the picture is the RRP not the price my dealer is asking for (otherwise I wouldn't even be talking about this).

Yes, I hear what you're saying about the decals. I keep swaying from one design to another to none at all!

My car was fine for about a year then I got TWO trolley dents in each of the front doors within about a month. Fuming I am. High up, at mirror level so the strips did not protect me.
 
Re: White Grande Sporting

They are colour matched.

Thanks for that info - pity my dealer salesman didn't know (but suspected they would just be black. BLACK! £250 for black reversing sensors! I didn't think that was right so he's supposed to be checking but I knew you guys would have the info!)

Great car, great forum!
 
Re: White Grande Sporting

that arch gap on the website isn't even close to the standard car, and the wheels are massively out of proportion, look like 19's lol shame

imo if ur going for the decal (which is very pricey for what it is) id leave the bump strip off doesnt look right with both to me
