Just gave the 90 a facelift.
Picked up a genuine LR SVX grille and light set in gloss black.
Then changed the colour to orange. I saw a Mini cooper S with a lovely orange colour and tried to copy it.
Got a litre of coach enamel for a tenner and a radiator roller from B and Q.
Painted the roof and wheels black, stuck a set of new Michelin Latitude cross 750 x 16's.
Well pleased with the result ,what do you think of the colour?

Different, in a good way!

I do like the grill and headlight surrounds.

I like the orange, same colour as the mini my daughter is learning to drive in. Did the paint go on easily. I have sections I could do with tarting up and would do a panel at a time. held back as worried about making it look worse....

Ostonfamily,
I used coach enamel and painted it with a radiator roller from my local hardware store, no streaks or runs, well pleased. I tried to copy a Mini cooper S colour, not exactly the same but happy enough with the result.
