I just got some pics in...
Before (Anyone know why is there still red by the fuel door?)...
After
I don't think thats the final paint. Something has to be done to it I think to make it stop looking like a matchbox car.

LETS RIDE BIKES!!11!
In all seriousness, I'm not to sure. I dont think thats the final paint to. They are definitely taking it apart to install the side markers on the front fenders so maybe they do the final matching then? I'd really like to hear from some paint experts. I know they took alot of it apart to do some body work on it. Like I said in a previous post a while back, it had alot of bondo on it. Someone in California is a bondo master. I bet he could have built a whole FD with just bondo.

Woah...
Thats awesome. We will have to see. Im guessing he will take at least some of it apart since he does have to do the door jambs. I think he knows that if I don't get perfection he is going to get an earful. I'll have to wait and see. I definitely appreciate the info. I did see some parts of the car apart when it was in the oven. This is actually the first time I've seen the doors attached to the car in a while.

I figured you would'nt remember, I used to live there but moved to AK in 05, we met at a starbucks meet in Pleasant Hill a long time ago in 04, when you had the red FD with the black RPO1's Wes, Sedley and a bunch of other guys where there, I was the one with the White FD..

No it is not. Its titanium grey metallic from the Spirit R! Thats kind of the whole reason Im doing all this. I always wanted to drive a spirit R but since I cant move to Japan or import one, Im doing the next best thing, which is spending the money that could have been used to buy a spirit R in Japan to build one up here. 2 words... EPIC FAIL.
