Getting my Soarer repainted

[pwd]

Originally took my car in to my mates panel shop to get some minor repair work and a bit of touch up paint work done

Car did not look to bad.

This has taken about six weeks so far, no rush.

Took a pic with the flash to get a better idea of the true colour.

Also picked up some seats in better nic than mine, got the steering wheel re trimmed, took the carpet out and steam cleaned it, also got the EMV refurbished.

Now that's how you're supposed to repaint a car!

Great job!

Car is almost finished, picked it up last night and will take it back in a couple of weeks to get polished and body kit fitted.

That looks nice, gotta say the above pic is a good look.

Are you going to put the badges back on or leave it de-badged like this?

What bodykit are you going to put on it?

 

[pwd]

Kit is really only skirts and a rear lip.

Man, I really like the de-badge of the rear. For some odd reason I still like the emblem in front, but the rear looks absolutely gorgeous! Nice paint job! Most people don't go near the level of detail that you went to.

PS: RHD FTW!

Talk about reviving an old thread.

Thanks for good words, believe it or not the kit has not been fitted yet , but it is finally getting done.
Hope to be finished in a couple of weeks, will post up pics then.
