« on: September 03, 2006, 09:25:14 AM »
I got my car back from being repainted.  Here are a couple quick camara phone pics of it.  I will have real camara ones soon....already taken, just not off the camara yet.  It was a full sand and respray.  Fixed a few little dings and one surface rust spot.  Car also got the correct iS lip spoiler and also painted the i spoiler for the winter months.  really really happy with how it turned out...its nice to have friends that paint for a living.

yes the next step is to lower it.  It probally won't happen until the spring tho.  Planning h&r and bilsteins

I have two cars I put money into....the other is a 1970 2002...with tons of mods.  and still finishing those mods up.

Nice choice on suspension.  I am running H&R and Bilstein Sports and it's a fantastic compromise for around town and mountain roads!  I'm sure you'll love it.

Paint looks stunning as well!  Love how shiny and fresh it looks!

that clear coat does it.  Man, it makes mw want to paint my car.  but then it wouldn't be beater status and I woul have to take better care of it.  Yours is so shiney my eyes kept sliding off of it!
