Heres a few pics I started to prime it, its been sitting for a while and decided i want to get it painted

a before picture




few pics with it primed half way and a dirty interior shot

 

looks good. are you going to be spraying it or a pro? what color are we talking here and it looks like you are painting all the trim and bumpers too. I would redo it in red if i were you since it would be cheapest. that is if the doorjams and stuff are still good looking.

 

Yeah I think I'm going to have a pro paint it the same color red because the door jams look alright. Right now any color would look better than the faded red/pink

 

Looks good, keep it up

 

are u jus doing body work?

 

Wow, that looks pretty decent all primed up!

Did you just do it in the driveway? Must have taped her off pretty good.

Little overspay on the bumper... all good tho.

 

Im doing just the body work and priming. There are a few minor dents that I'll fix, but other than that no major damage to the outside.

Yeah, I did it in my drive way. I air sanded down the old paint, and primed it in my backyard on a non windy day.

I'll post some more pictures when all the body work is done, and some more when I get the paint on

 

any updates on the leaf collector?

 

Looks good. My buddy rolls a primed hatch, looks badass slammed!!

up for more pics

P.s. I spy a SI/ex cluster in there. coming together nicely!!

 

I finished spraying the rest of the car today. If the paint looks a little blotchy it's because it is probably still wet in some spots. The hood looks mismatched because its really dirty. I'm going to remove the emblems later to prime that small strip also. Other than that and some sanding, It should be ok to paint I think.

Garbage bags and Blue tape FTW!!

Heres the pics:
