Re: (BiG Chris)
As in top what do you mean...
Finial color is gonna be what you see there...
Minus the carbon fiber sunroof panel (functional) is just gonna be re-cleared,
and i have a ViS CF SiR style hood (for USDM front) that is gonna get paint up to the body lines on the hood
The bodyshop doing it is New York Motorcar in Newark NJ.
Drop me a line if you want more info on them....they know thier stuff!!

Re: (TurboLex)
Hehehehe lets just put it like this...
Rear fenders where rusted out...they fabbed new fenders out of raw sheet metal (inner and outer fender walls), also the front and rear rockers where rusted,
When i dropped the car off i gave them 3 grand...
plus another 2,500 i dropped off the other day...
maybe another grand more cuz im doing ALL new seals (weather seals and window seals)
but a cherry CRX to die for = Priceless

Re: (Newark Built Kandy SiC-RX)
I forgot to mention she isnt all just for looks...
http://www.we-todd-did-racing....x.jpg
As with the paint,
Originally i wanted R81 Milano Red, then choices when from BMW Imola Red, Ferrari Red, Viper Red, even on the new Corvettes the Magnetic Red (which is also a Candy type paint)...
Owners of the bodyshop still bust my ***** for wanting a "plain red" lol.
But then again when you put this much money into a car why be ordinary.
Also another side note...
My car will be at Hot Import Nights in Atlantic City NJ...most likely that Saturday Ill be there...And keep a look out for all the other hot *** cars in Maxxd Out Auto Club

Re: (.Unknown.)
Not sure how much the paint alone is...cuz there was ALOT of resto work...
Layers of paint are:
2 Light coats of primer
6 or 7 coats of Silver (Silver dosent cover for ****)
If i remember, bodyshop said like 4 or 5 coats of the Kandy Red
and about 6 or 7 coats of clear...
Sounds like alot but they are very light coats, with about 20 min of bake time between each at like 180 degrees.
