Thanks I hope he likes it gonna show him on ChristmasLooks like you had a busy black Friday! Your Husband is a lucky man. Great job!
This turned out great! I think your husband is going to love it.Here' the pics I will post more after I cut and buff it, will also be sanding and buffing the lights, on my other two cars they were worse than this! And they buff to brand new shape!
On the spyder in my profile, I used the rattle cans to fix a dented rear quarter and used paint Store base in a can and two part clear coat, you used the red cap to break a device inside the can mixing the hardener to it, I had the same results I got with my comressor and spray gunThis turned out great! I think your husband is going to love it.
Just curious, what was the total cost for supplies? I tried using some duplicolor perfect match rattle cans to fix up some minor scratches and I'm not at all happy with the results. Would love to just buy a spray gun and do it the right way.
Rebuilding a stock turbo isn't hard at all. The 1st time I did one, it took me less than an hour once it was on the bench.By the way I paid 800 for the car and the interior is superior mechanics are good, just need to rebuild the turbo, if the car is left to idle then drive away, it puts out literally way enough smoke to have the police pull you over!I took off the turbo pipe and it' leaking from the turbo, how hard should this be?
Yes it' hard to make it all match, I would never do it myself because I lack the skillGreat job and yeah I have used Omni before myself its a good paint to use and flows out great.I am going full out on mine since this will be my last time I do a paint job for myself or anyone else, I am going all out doing a black base red metal flake mid coat with a house of colors candy red over that followed up by clear coat.first time doing a candy and I will see how it turns out my dad used to do allot of them back in the 50s and told me to be ready for the hardest paint job to do ever.
Man that looks pretty good! Nice job.Painted it tonight waiting for the air to clear to get pics up, gotta wet sand and buff it tomorrow, the car is a surprise for my husband

Sure I'd do itWhile you're painting cars I got a 93 GSX that has a BOCES paint job on it. Feeling ambitious? I'll trailer it to you!
