Update on my 7: Looking nicer, not good... just nicer

When I first started I just wanted the damned thing to run

Now I also want it to look good, thats why I will paint her Titanium Grey Metallic

The bodyshop guy is kinda ... complicated, and its taking forever, but hey, its a nice work

Still a looooot of sanding ahead to smooth the surface

We will cover her with a black base, and then block sand to find hi and low spots

and then, we will spray her with the most amazing mazda colour

The weather is a lil cold and humid this days, so we are letting it "air" a lot.

Block sanding takes a lot of time, so I have no idea when it will be ready
