Well here are the long awaited pictures of the body painted. lol now I just need the bumpers lol
Today I started working on it since 7am, and couldn't be happier, I started to finish the prepping, mask it and shoot it.
here are the pictures there is 3 coats of white 4 coats of paint and 3 of clear
next step is I will wet sand whole car with 1000 grit and reshoot another 2 coats of clear on every panel and wet sand and buff and should look really really shiny.
enjoy.

OP, I've have bad experiences with body-shops doing sloppy work but you are meticulous with your work, good job. I'm waiting to see the 3rd gen done.

gas lid
I'm doing a metallic color, two tone, jambs, wet sand & buff, and body work. lol I should have charged 2k at least and all the work, I'm doing it as it was on my own car, if i don't like something I fix it rather than let it go and wait for the guy to tell me its wrong with it
and as for the third gen yea so is everyone else. lol
I'm still undecided on the color id love to do it white or red, but original color is that rare teal, Idk what color I should do, id do the teal again but I have red seats :/, I want to do it real clean and simple I wana add c6 wheels pretty soon, if i do go red or white, I also think I'm going to go with that 2 inch carbon fiber cowl hood so it matches what I'm going to do black on the body, such as black gs stripes, headlight sockets, middle of the front valence to line with outer part of the grill, and black hood blisters for now

here are some pictures couldn't do more since it started to rain and be windy, plus I need the primer to harden up.
