Tell me what you think!
Monday, May 12, 2008 7:27 PM
This is what my car looked like it 2006



Then in 2007



And now in 08 i found the rest of the pieces i needed for my z24 kit and then i painted everything in my basement and it was the first time i ever painted with a hvlp.




And i know it needs lowerd i just order a set of sportlines and dspecs im just waiting to get them in.

and for the first pic from 08 what would say you about powder coating the calipers red? (if anyone could photo shop them in red that would be great)

thanks. i painted everything piece by piece cuz i had a 33 gal tank. but it never kicked on while i was painting. and i was useing a kobalt hvlp gun which was ok. just remember to set your psi on the tank and the gun correctly. and clean the parts before spraying and make sure nothing gets in the paint while mixing.

everything i painted came out really good and even better after wet sanding and buffing. when i was done with the back it blended in with quarter panels and only under certain light can you tell its been painted. but the quarter panels are fu##ked they have scratches and dents that you can't see in the pics once i find a garage or booth i plan on painting the doors and panels which are the only things besides the roof i havent touched. but for now im just go to get stock fogs light, DROP it, some tint, and get some toyota tails.

Do the front wheels really stick out that far, or is that just an illusion? Looks like you did a damn good job on the paint. Overall nice car.
