Yeh Ultra Blue is a Mica colour, that looks class in the sun and quite dark in the crap light - almost like 2 different paints! - best pic of the colour (not the car!) atm, can get more when better light:



Please dont consider a pastel colour or anything - keep it subtle

yea just thinking of the normal tigra splitter, prob not smoothed in cos that wud prob crack straight away if cought on kerb or anything, then normal evo spoiler u c on tigras, not really sure wot do do wheels wise, its all being done on a budget so dont wanna go spending loads on money, but really need 16s on it! gonna be lowered 60ml!! may leave the splitter and spoiler till once its done cos them 2 bits are like £200

should be done EVERYTHING including respray in one off colour made for the car for under £1200, thats if all goes to plan!! prob wont, hehe
