It's not been sprayed, it's been 'wrapped' and then had the trimmings/stickers added.
That way it can be put back to it's orig colour after the event with very little effort,
plus wrapping it will mean less paintwork damage to the original colour underneath.

Air is drawn into the cylinder of a diesel engine and compressed by the rising piston at a much higher compression ratio than for a spark-ignition engine, up to 25:1. The air temperature reaches 700-900 C, or 1300-1650 F.

I NOMINATE (DEMAND ACTUALLY) THAT AL YOUNG'S CAR BE ENTERED IN THE
'MOST MODIFIED SMART' COMPETITION HELD AT THE SMARTFEST 10TH SEPT 2011.

All in favour send him a PM..but not right now...in a week maybe (he's a member on
here)...and demand that as an owner of the said car, that he puts it into the
competition.
As the Chairman of TheSmartClub, there is no way that it would not win...
or that peops would not vote for 'his' car...being as who he is n all.

What a victory that would be for owners of the ForFour if he did win it, eh ?

Whilst I'm sure he'd love to win Most Modified smart and would appreciate such support from the forfour owning community, PLEASE don't all PM him - he's been up all night driving the forfour back from the workshops - I can't imagine he'd take too kindly to the influx of mail just at the moment. Graham, maybe a poll?

In any case, surely he'd have competition from any of the S4R BRABUS fortwo racing cars?

The forfour will be on show at smart times in Italy next week, and then again at Snetterton (August 13/14th) and finally just ahead of it's 24hr race it'll be at thesmartfestival.

Sorry G, I don't think it would win...

There's not nearly enough speakers, fibreglass multiple subwoofer installs, garish and awfully drawn airbrushed 'artwork', dials inside to tell you what every part of the car is doing but don't because they're just for show, TV screens showing 'RnB' rappers, fluffy cuddly toys and aftermarket chromed plastic bling on that car for it to even be considered.

Also, it has too many wheel nuts.

Wow Al, seriously does look absolutely amazing. I can't wait to see it!

Do you think you could sway it to do some demo driving around the tracks at the smart festival? Show off the speed, handling and general awesomeness?
