I am retired and paint for fun so when asked to complete an S2000 I was over the moon, what a shape, a beautiful car that stands the test of time, have a look and tell me your thoughts

Silverstone silver reflects the shape perfectly

she looks tidy enough though the rear of the sill looks odd

i assume no rattle can really involved

Yeah... BS in can. What's with the USA reg, and also UK teh plate?
Silver on any car notoriously difficult to match up on any panel and very sensitive to coat depth, not just the paint, especially the lacquer. So if done with a rattle can, I'll eat my hat!
Should have gone midnight purple if resprayed

It's tough. Silverstone is very metallic, loads of sparkle, so looks different from angles etc

Very hard to match.

MrHat

No rattle can, just taking the mick out of utube vids that show great results from rubbish products they are trying to sell, can you imagine five coats of lacquer from rattle cans, I would still be there now lol

MrHat

You got me, you get to keep that hat on, and you are right silver is the worst to get right but owner insisted on keeping it standard, what can you do? there are so many beautiful colours out there I would love to have used

MrHat

This car is completely different in changing light and under LED`s in workshop looks almost mink, its a very clever silver compared to others

MrHat

USA plate ? its all UK this one,owner had it 22 years, you are right about silver, specially this one, I can change the shade by altering gun pressure by 2psi, less pressure darker shade

MrHat

Can you imagine Sepang blue, that would be nice in the sun, I put a new front end on this A5
