Project: The Coupe (lots of pics)

traded my EF hatch project for this, has a GSR and a few other upgrades but needed a paint job. I took a week off work to do it, not sure I can get it done but I have a friend flying in from San Diego to help me so here it is. Mods Im doing are shaving the emblems, hood squirters, antenna and front license plate holes in bumper..

progress so far is going well. I would've out the sunroof (glass only) though. It would've been a lot easier to spray the roof. looks great though.

thought about that but we only had a certain amount of time to get it done so I voted to just mask it. It worked out fairly well though with it partly open.
