Few little updates, been getting myself a flocker, so probably gone waaaaaay overboards, but loving the effect at the minute!
Firstly, didn't really want to shell out on post facelift door cards, just seems loads of money for fundamentally a bit of red fabric, so I flocked my old ones
Not a bad finish, I'll end up doing it again no doubt just to get it perfecto! But as a first attempt, not bad at all!
Then, moved on to speedo surround! Just wanted some small bits that popped on and off easy enough to play with the flocking machine on! Worked quite well, still needs bit of practive to perfect, but getting there!
Ignore the dust
And, inevitabley, the steering cowling, as next to the flock it looked dull and old. Had a few nasty key marks etc which needed sorting so flocking seemed the logical option!
Again, much dust around, needs a clean Hides the crappy old key scratched plastic lovely though!
Something a little out there in the engine ba anyone!
Flocked.... Plug cover and i-VTEC Cover!
The BMC CDA is in the bin now!
Honda Access JDM Mats... £30 ebay BARGAIN! Couldn't beleive my luck!
They are mint, just need a good clean
And, fitted aftermarket radio, so flushed it in, then, you guessed it, flocked it to finish!
But, like a numpty, I've LOST my guage surrounds! Some now on order, but what an idiot!
Not to everyone's taste, as I'm generally walking that marmite line, but I like it at the minute. No doubt in a few months I'll get a new idea
Bear in mind this is all done in my front room, with google, balls of steel and a bit of insanity
Not to mention, new disks & pads all round, full on service, and general upkeep really!
