My SA is getting ready to be painted. Progress here.
So For many many years I have wanted to paint my SA We got to work on it today. Plan is to be done by the first of the week.
The plan is a two tone job, will weld in most of the Badge holes and other unneeded ones. :) As it sits http://photos-h.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-...383_643305.jpg The bottom color is going on it. http://photos-b.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-...85_6349744.jpg Prep for welding http://photos-c.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-...86_5713134.jpg |
Its awesome getting fresh paint .
I've expereinced it now on both my SA and 89 FC . Nice choice , are you two toniing it with black ? |
Decepticons Rule! Sorry about that. Nothing like making that final step into fresh paint. Just take your time with the prep, and you'll thank yourself later.

Just take your time with the prep, and you'll thank yourself later. That is Bobby with the ink most popular tat in the shop. we hope to prep it right, not many dents but a lot of holes to weld and a little surface rust to get out. |
That will look good when you are done, like they said prep work is the key, and theres nothing like fresh paint to make your car look brand new.
|
should look nice.. i personally wouldnt fill in the badge holes. they really look nice imo.
|
i want to rebadge my car :(

debadgeing your car is like breasts without nipples
|
it is not a mustang so no one in this area really even cares what it is.
Shaving a few other things, just hopping I will like it after. |
one guy actually thought my car was a mustang, IDIOT

Looking good man, I'm really digging that paint scheme...
|
good luck, looks like a ways to go. doing it yourself will really make you enjoy it more in the end.
|
Actually, the JDM market FBs (OK, technically, SAs over there) offered 2-tones in some later model years.
You going for the european side marker lights too Hades?? (going by the drawing) Stu Aull 80GS Alaska |

Had not thought about it yet. |
o ok... it looked like you had drawn it that way
|
|
when I get my car prepped I plan on debadging 90% and just leaving the GSL-SE plaque out rear and thats it. Maybe the Mazda in the front but I will def be removing the fender RX7 ones and at least ONE Mazda plaque.
Good job and keep it going! cant wait to see it once it is done! |
|
looks like you've made some progress!!!
|
can't wait to see the outcome
