Paulwhite1987's Zafira B Progress Thread

[paulwhite1987]

bought the car in feb 2013. Was a standard zafira club 1.6 (103 ps).first job was to sort tints. 20% on the front and limo black on the back.






Next was to fit wid deflectors which previous owner brought and didnt fit



next i addressed the handbrake lever which was worn so rubbed it down and re-vinyled it.



originally i did carbon but vinyl was poor quality but prefer the oem black look

next i gave it a good going over with autoglm paint restorer and super resin polish as there were spots of haze and the paint was very flat.

next i painted the calipers and discs as they were red and blue which looked a mess so put the discs back silver and tried black calipers



next jobs to do are to address a few trim pieces inside due to wear and tear and possible a spoiler

also brought a set of 18" penta's which will go on after a refurb

Just new alloys and sorting emissions light for now. Might do led colour conversion and possible new bid

Coming along nicely

Managed to get hold of a set of 18" Penta's with nearly new tyres for £275 and not in bad nick with a few surface curb marks. Turned out the 2 tyres were a different size to the other 2 but managed to get 2 Pirelli p zero Rosso tyres from the tyre place round the corner so now have a matching set.





This is the worst of the 4



spent the last 2 days rubbing them down and filling the deeper scratches. Have since rubbed them down and gone over with a bit more filler. Going to be given a good clean in the morning and a going over with wet and dry so they can be masked and primed. Just need to decide a colour

I would go for an anthracite colour as Smiffy said above a dark colour on silver does look nice. Lovely progress and its coming along nicely

[paulwhite1987]

I tried in photo shop an I do prefer them silver. Already have dark tints and black calipers so don't want to go over the top. I like the oem penta colour but I've heard it's very hard to match. I'd be happy to go with the colour of the alloys that are on it now, I'm just not sure what colour it is.

I would day black then maby change caliper colour will stand out a treat then nice progress so far
