Suspected cause
point, I think it is more likely a vinyl wrap :dont know:
Leading evidence: 'vinyl wrap :dont know' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, the most frequently mentioned possible cause is 'vinyl wrap :dont know' (1 discussions; 0 report identifying it and 1 suggest it). The most frequently discussed action is 'Check over and hsitory' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.

Suggestion
Would obviously need a good check over and hsitory check...
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I don't really understand what's happening with the bonnet that appears to be a different colour than the rest. Price lower than I would expect from a dealer for age / mileage.
Any helpful comments welcomed.

Car looks good with kit & black wheels etc but it looks like to bonnet, roof & bootlid have been painted black to match the wheels - Not my cuppa if I'm being honest. :dont know:
How much to spray back seal grey? :?:
Looks potentially a good buy for someone. Would obviously need a good check over and hsitory check...
Rear plate looks a bi t haggered though, would have replaced that for the advert. :dont know:
Hmmmm. You know when things don't feel that good?
Rang the first number on Pistonheads (mobile) guy hadn't a clue if it was 2WD or 4WD - gave me another number also mobile to ring.
Spoke to the second bloke. "It's my brother's car. I think its 4WD. I can check and ring you back".
Asked about the black panels "Not to my taste either. We are a customising shop and did it for him. We can put it back if you like"
:chin:
Now stripes aren't my cup of tea, but I can see how painting the bonnet, roof and engine lid may work.
But not in this case. I think ,firstly, the colour should be a complete contrast (the black and grey look too similar, in fact in some images with reflections etc you have to look hard to see which panel is which), secondly, what's the deal with the spoiler itself being "non-stripe" colour?
Surely that should match the stripe (and so should a section of PU front and rear), or else it makes no sense.
I am, however, intrigued by the "rear electric windows".
The next guy has come back to me.
2WD, that's what I am after. 2 Services by an OPC and then servicing by 'Vision Performance'
No objection to a PPI (But then they have to say that don't they?
Not sure what my next move is.
I would ask them to fax or scan you copies of the service book to start with. And ask about the black panels, is it paint or a wrap?
Then HPI etc etc
To be honest it looks a confused car, the black half works but isnt really a stripe and the MK11 GT3 kit is nice but doesnt match the MK1 wheels
Could be a decent buy if it stacks up and its what youre after
Ah.. good tip (Re: Service book)
The panels are definitely paint, but they are offering to rectify this.
I'm in two minds about the lack of purity of the car, it is deeply confused as you so aptly put it. On the other hand the wheels are really stylish. Personally hate the spoiler, but that's just a 'me' thing
There are LOADS of decent cars out there for sale and if you like black wheels then when you find the right car, just get them sprayed! I don't think this one looks quite right personally. Its a shame this one has been bastardised. Keep it classic with some nice wheels and you can't go wrong! :thumb:
