muzzrx Posted September 23, 2013 Author Share Posted September 23, 2013 Way overdue for an update... Got mucked around by quite a few local painters before finding someone up front and honest to do it. Today was Paint day 1. Body. Front: http://i.imgur.com/8uIdjxg.jpg Rear: http://i.imgur.com/9Uz8WUt.jpg I am really happy with the results so far, It's amazing how good it looks. Black was a hard color to choose, and I knew I would be in for a tough job to get her error free - and there are some errors, about 5-7 spots where I just could not see/fix - But it's under fluoro lights, so under normal light, they wont be as visible. Overall, I am over the moon. Roll on Wednesday, I can start putting her back together... I've also got a K2 Gear Trunk lip spoiler on the way, with some G-Corp eyelids. Yee haaa... More pics to come.

Imprezsing04 Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 So you are painting yourself? You didnt go with the mazda color? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muzzrx Posted September 23, 2013 Author Share Posted September 23, 2013 I've got a guy doing the painting for me Hes just started his own panel and paint business, so i'm bartering goods and services for a paint job ! I've gone black. I wont forgive myself with any other color. The mazda color was nice, but because i'm only a novice with repairs, I didnt want to drop a tonne of cash on the paint, only to find id missed a spot. And I have. Very very minor, but still. I would have been kicking myself, With this, I'm so happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waterbug Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 Looks good! Welcome to my world I do this every day! I paint between 15 and 30 cars a day, not all overs but we do have all five paint booths full and going. I did body and paint at my last shop and did a lot of hi end cars. Just started at this shop and they are wearing me out. If you enjoy working on them just don't do it for a living because you will come to hate working on your own cars. Good job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
