Default Finally painted the bird
I finally got to the paint part of my car I picked out a silver with a light blue hue but when I shot it it turned more blue not big deal just need to do the jams etc. figured I would show it off I have not cut and buffed yet so in the pics its not as shiny as it can be.
color is #250 "forged" from Custom Colorshop

Since the first day I bought the car I've wanted to fill it in, also its a clear plate so I can put a light behind it.

HAHA well I just hated how they did that plate it just doesn't flow IMO. If I get to the point I don't like it its an easy R&R part.

Looks awesome, front end looks better further away when you can see the whole car.

Looks excellent. Ever give any thought to doing the spokes of the TT2s a darker shade?
