For the last 3 days i was thinking how should i improve the look of the Silvia, and then i came up with some ideas for some nice details. Yesterday i went to a printery in Nova Gorica to print a decal i made for the Silvia. It cost me 150V$, because it's quite big. I went there with the Mazda, it drives well, but there was one problem. I stopped at a gas station to refuel and get something to drink, but then... the car didn't start. :facepalm: At that moment i couldn't know what the problem is, looks like there is still some work to do with it. It couldn't be the battery, because i already replaced it. Fortunately, there was some guy with a jeep. He had a rope, it's an important thing to have when offroading. He was heading the same way as me, so he made a strong knot with the rope and towed me all the way to home for more than 10 km. :P

When i got home, this Clio was still here from monday, because the poor guy broke a piston or something. I'm wondering how did he do that, it's not even a so old car. And i see some leak on the floor, so there are more problems. Well, this week we had a lot of cases like this, which means we got some serious profit. But none of them was so bad like this.


Let's move on to the Silvia, shall we? While i was in Nova Gorica i also bought some yellow paint, i thought i would paint something so the yellow colour will really stand out, I painted the bolts of the rims, not much of a difference but it's visible. It looks more like gold now, but it still looks good.

Here you can see the vinyl i got. Before i put it on i thought of another clever idea: I took my time and carefully cut a nice Silvia logo in it, slowly but surely. :D

Here are the final results:

It looks so much better to me now! Details like this really make a car special. And that's what i like. What do you think? Feel free to tell me how it looks to you. :)
