A nice 360" panorama of the car.

The Liberty looks a bit average at the moment, i need to get rid of these shtty old school faded tints which are currently on the car. Along with a good high pressure hose down at Car Lover should do it. But ill def post some pics in this month. I want to bring my Liberty up to the standard i had the Leone in. Shouldnt be long now:D

well i was driving home the other day and i saw a @#$#ing orange brumby it looked really crap they hadnt done anything to it so i sorta dont wanna go orange because of them but its not always bad having two cars the same colour becuase u can get away with more but i was also thinking of painting the brumby just a nice white colour but im still trying to work out wat to do i have a bit of time also i still have to work out who is painting the brumby

i would save money not painting the car and spend it on engine and drivetrain, its a 4wd so its bound to get scratches and dents.

If you DO paint it though....its always good to keep to a pastel (non metallic) job so that its much easier and cheaper to touchup if a scratch occurs, thats why I chose my pastel colour. I also chose a twopack paint for extra durability. If it was just a street car I would have painter her Purple or Green like the current model Commodors or summin.

Since Ive painted her I cant stop looking at her....like that Amorall add. hehe

I've been trying to think of ways to protect the paint when offroading in really overgrown areas where scratches are more likely...thought about buying some sheets of thick protector adhesive vinyl sheeting, in a clear, similar to the ones they put on new cars when in transit to apply just to the sides mainly. OR better still getting a 'car-bra' made for the L that can easilly be applied and removed that reaches to behind the front wheel arches and clips inside the front door frame (?).

I guess it is a bit silly getting an offroader painted, but I couldnt resist. I just love my L too much I guess....bit sad I know.
