After months of trying to decide on a colour or colours, whether to spray, pay some one or roll it myself, I think Ive finally decided on a colour scheme for the T25.

So, I initially thought Id go dark as I've drawn up here in the before and after


But the Mrs wants to go more conventional and lighten things up, so I think were settling on a very pale green/mint van and a white roof.

Im going to give the roller system a go. Ive already spent weeks sorting out the body work, and its all nice and solid and smooth..only a couple of bits to go. So its a big sand back and hey presto paint goes on, or so I hope. Ive read all the paint your bud threads, watched the videos, etc. What I could do with is somewhere inside to do it all, but well see!

What I wondered was if any one has any great ideas for colour schemes, styles etc, before I go ahead and order the paint?





Ive also got a set of 17" 225 for her new shoes, and Im debating re alloying or spraying these a gun metal grey ...oooo the stress of it all

I'd go light. I've done two coats of brown over what was previously yellow and I'm going back to yellow in spring. A pale blue with which roof and bumpers would look good on yours I reckon

I like the idea of a pale blue myself....but have a mate near by with a very similar colour scheme, so want to look different.
another decision now is white wheels or re alloy them, Ive stripped them down already

have fun

Shem, pop round and have a look at the roller paint on the van. I guarantee you will not be disappointed! You're 3 miles away! If you manage to sort out a place to paint her indoors let me know if I can fit ours in too. we are nearly finished doing our 2 tone orange and white job but the weather is holding us back soo much...

Also, shem, you interested in a amplifier for the sound in the van? got two but only installing one.. it's a pioneer 2.3.4 channel 80w per channel for some awesome sounds?

Cheers bud, hope to catch you this avo.

Cheers Covkid, fun afternoon ahead

Paint ordered, pale mint and white it is. Right, wheres my sander!
