Banpei's two door panda Trueno from Japan

[banpei]

There was no progress on the fog light brackets nor on the garage over the past two weeks. However, during the weekend of 86Dach, this happened:

It happened on one of the major roads in Cologne, and I wasn't paying attention. So I only noticed it when I arrived at the hotel.
Regardless of that, rolling over to 80k feels like I doubled the mileage on this car!

On my way home, I also picked up these:

As I sold the Carina with the 15-inch Celica Supra wheels and Seb recently picked up the 5th (spare) wheel, my garage felt empty without a set of them!

I have two plans, either make them black:


Or make them look like the two-tone design of the Celica Supra Mk2 (last year of sale?):

My idea is to make the medium grey a bit darker than in this picture and also reapply the black line. Perhaps I'll use the same gunmetal grey as used on the Black Racing wheels.

But the first step is to establish the thickness of the layer of white paint. If it's not too thick, I'll sand it down lightly and use it as a primer.
