Repainting the whole car BMW Carbon Black.

That is actually quite nice looking. I was wanting one of these years ago, but I ended up going with an S13 instead.

Good luck with your project.

Bro, would you be able to take some pics, real close ups of the AC connectors showing the wire colors and later with the component hooked up to the harness, I am working on a multi year AC tutorial for the folks on the forums to diagnose their own AC systems and I need tons of pics. I can give more details if you have time please, this would be a huge help man.

could you get a few of the fuse box please, the map, some of the relays for any fans, the backside if you can see wire colors, I have lots of time so if you dont mind I can guide you for what would only be a few pics please, maybe a dozen, it would be some help and your stuff is torn down, makes it even easier.

Update: The engine bay is painted, sorry i couldnt snap any pictures, Ill have pictures of the finished product on monday night. Came out perfect.

Here is some photos of the progress;





Ready for primer:


Masked off for primer


Rad support:


Washprimer CR on bare metal:


Me spraying primer:


Primed:


Here I ran into a few problems, for some weird reason the primer wasnt adhering to some spots...so i had to sand it all down and re-prime. Also blocked all the primer, and re-primed everything for super straightness


Ready for paint:






More to come on Monday night
