I finally finished the paint job on my car, and it looks great. Its the same paint as the RX-8 metalic silver. Let me know what you think.

Looking good. Now you just need a front lip And painting the front grill in the bumper black will make it look much nicer IMO

sorry the car does not weight 3500lbs. Its weight is 3300lbs. I'm not sure if you could get just the paint, or not. I got the paint and the car shot for $500 because i did all the prep work on it. The engine bay is getting painted hopefully next week when i pull the engine. I have been looking for a good lip to buy but no luck finding the FEED lip, so i think im going to go with the MAZDASPEED LIP. As far as painting the bumper black. WTF are you talking about. lol. Thanks for all the compliments though guys. Hopefully it will be in RX Tuner, as soon as i send Ryan the pics.

I'd like to see a slip for your 123 MPH trap, with 270 HP.

Aside from that , your car looks very good

nice paint job, but physics says NO on the timeslip. 3,500lbs+278 RWHP doesn NOT equal 12's . Even if it's a 12.99.

here's just something to start with, and this is not even counting drag, miss shifts, I'm sorry to say but you're good looking RX7 does not give those numbers.

That looks very nice

Right now my car is Harbor Blue and is in need of new paint. I was thinking of IBM, brave blue, or silver. After seeing your car I'm liking the silver a little more now
