OW!


I refer to that car as "Pain #2", which is no where near as painful to look at as jammeRx7GSL's old car that I referred to as PAIN. That car was painted surveyer's neon pink and orange. That car SERIOUSLY was painful to look at. I'd never had a car hurt to look at that much.


Looks like a well-done paint job... the paint... well, it hurts if you hadn't figured that out yet.

I went with Chrome Yellow Clearcoat from the 2004 Mazda-6 colors, but the end result is close to the same. Not a fan of metallic or mica's however.

Looks great!

i paid 2500$ CDN ~1800usd to get the car painted... the only thing he didn't paint is the engine bay, the engine bay is black so it's not that bad.

Actually, the car looks amazing in person, yeah it's a police eye catcher... I love the way it looks now. Hooo for those asking for the gsl-se (silver one), it's not mine.

Our driveway consist of..
RX-8 2004 6 speed Winning Blue
RX-7 93 touring vintage red with some mods
and RX-7 83 GS CYM with GSL-SE engine and dellorto
Mazda 3 2004 titanium Grey, GT model, 5 speed.

I'll try to get some photos of all the cars here.

Yeah... my car was Hunter green metallic before. And nobody wanted to race it... Now, i got 2 kills in like one week just because of the color... So now, i'm planning on turboing the thing... But it costs money lol!

We'll see..

Did they mask trim or remove it? Are the doors painted around the jam and interior?

Nice, good price. I had a paint job for that price about 12 years ago. They only painted the exterior sides of the panels, masked the trim, rub strips and door locks and handles. You could see the masking lines after they finished and there were obvious runs in the paint. It looked terrible.
