Stripping it myself saved me between 500/1000 in labor at the shop
besides, if you are doing a colour change, and you wanna do it well.... you have to strip it
I know the rotor wheels are rare.... but I will go for meshies in the future

Looks good, you kept the dash (more or less) in place, are they going to be able to spray close enough around that you won't know? Or the carpet is going back in so you'll never see it? And I also see that you are keeping the tar mats in the car, why, the FB isn't really known for peace and quiet.
Looks good though, post pics when you get it back.

Hi there guys!
I took the dash out because I dont want it to get damaged. After all, the guy will install a sun roof from an mx3 (dont worry, Ive been reading a lot and will reinforce)
So far not a spot of rust in the entire car. Thanks to our warm dry weather!
The guy at the shop will take all the glass out, bumbers, fenders, doors and probably tar.
I will put dynamat all over the car anyways.
The carpet will go back in, as well as everything else. This car will be a daily driver.
Those are not male members on the hood , the guys were drawing vents on it, trying to convince me to cut the hood
Ian, let me know as soon as you get the stuff I need, and I will paypal you

Looking good, especialy the no rust part. That must be friggen nice not to have to cut out rust and weld in new pieces of metal.
I'm also in the process of stripping my 7, dad is showing me the tricks of how to do body work and getting it prepped for paint, and ill probly give it a try on a smaller dent just under the rear right tail light.
Yea they are som bittchs to get out, epecially the whole thing like the metal frame work and all.
By the way what color you going to get er painted? Good work on the dismantling.
