BACK From Paint !! Pics !!!!
Thursday, June 21, 2007 11:52 AM
Well, I had the car repianted and had body work done, Shaved the key holes yadda yadda, I stayed with the GM SIlver, BUT I had it modified slightly by my painter, I asked him to up the blue content in the colour code to add depth for shine (more lustrous), and I also had the flake count go threw the roof, the car glimmers now when light hits it, which sadly is hard to make out in photos ! Car will be wet sanded in 2 months time, and have its baptism with 10 coats of Klasse.

*Sadly, MY 2nd day back with the car, I hit a peice of Truck tire blowout on highway 9....... Ripped my GM Lip off :banghead: . It is going back for paint soon... d(it survived it though no real damage besides cosmetics)


Pics:








*I am going to convert to import fighter sides, and a Type W lip if I can EVER find one for a half decent price.... (Local dealer wnats 573 $ !!!YES front lip only!!!), So these skirts and the front lip will be up for grabs come This winter.

u can get the front lip on ebay for like $250 shipped IIRC

paint looks amazing, you just need some little things done now!

paint the mirror sail (peice that attaches to the car) black, it breaks up the lines by the window and looks horrible (sorry )
new clear corners-or fix the ones u have-moisture

great job on the paint tho man, it really looks great.

Like it all except the mirror brackets. I feel that when painted it takes aways from the look of the body lines.
