Question thinking of this..

as soon as i get my motor in the 7, im going to give her a new paint job my interior is tan and brown... (when i took the targa off i found out that she was a gold 7.) so im asuming to find the same when i take the wing and skirts as well... so im going to attempt the $100 paint job seems alot of you guys have been very succesful at it.. prior to reading that thread i ws going to try the rattle can method, using montana paint.. i am a grafitti artist so i have pretty good can can control... anyway i did a quick mock up of how i want to paint her... and here is a photo of a 240 i painted with montana... ps itsays drift...

Well, if you want a new paintjob, I wouldn't recommend your rattle can art. I do love it, and always have, but it would be a BITCH if you want it painted again.

That'd be a certified Cop Magnet, in my neighborhood.

Everyone from the Homeowner's Association to the County Mounties would be stopping you, farming for quota.

PS; mask the tires, maybe?

hahaha that car was not mine nor is it street legal... straight drift car.. nothing inside but 2 seats and a roll cage and some gages, that car is a beast! he just won some big national champion drift competition or something, and wanted a paint job that people would know who's car it was.... so there you have it
drivindriver .. those wheels were his spares not his wheels that are usually on it. so i could just paint right over them... ill see if i can find more photos of the rest of the car.
