painted it metallic satin nickel. wanted to get rid of the modling, pin stripes, and all the scratches, chips, random stuff. also wanted to keep the patina. it looks cool irl. has a pearl sheen and from some angles looks like patina'd nickel. painted the wheels and mirrors black.

Before:


Prep:


After: (looks better in daylight but too lazy to retake right now)


had a bunch of people take pics at stoplights and stopsigns (though annoying when im waiting on them to go...)

time to get some flares and a wing and maybe paint the molding on the bumpers along with the badges.

also gonna work on the engine and suspension.

 

Black SA waffles not a bad look either.

lil more gold than i wanted (which was more silver) but the nickel has grown on me.

 

You got big shoes to fill Dude, she need's to look better than she did

 

she looked horrible before. dont let photoshop fool you...well it does... anyway. im not near done. need new wheels and flares/wing and a port.

 

Black out your bumper, door, and windshield trims again for sure..that will help out looks a lot IMO.. id have polished those waffles too, not painted em.. look forward to seein it with wheels and its black bits painted black

Neighbors porsche looks fun

 

its plastidip so i can take it off =] once i buy some more im going to black the trim again and see about all black wheels instead of the design i left on there with the original grey.
