    cheers
    the plan was to paint them black, and i bought a set of side strips to put on aswell but after i painted the car i quite like the look of it at the min so for now its staying all colour coded .

    It doesn't look right without the door strips IMO, even if they were colour coded.

    the pics arnt great they were taken on my phone.
    ill get some better ones up soon . the car came out really well totally dent free . I gave it 6 coats of rosso swift then 3 coats of clear and then spent a day with the rotary polishing it . but it rained on and off when i took the pics.

    Looks okay apart from the bump strips, tray on the bumper, boot handle, headlight washers, wing mirrors and missing pillar stickers. Actually looks a bit more poverty spec the way it is, unless that's your thing.
