I Repainted My Car! :)
 
Yeah so once again I have painted my car. Its still blue but now a darker cobalt and with a design on the side. Tell me what you gusy think. As far the design goes I wanted to keep it simple but diffrent you may have seen it else where as well I thought it looked clean and simply stunnign in black on blue. The car was alos white for a short 3 day period before that. I was actually going to kep it white but I had ot make it more showy, chances are I will actaully strip the damn car in a year or 2 again and paint her white becasue I liked it so much here are some pics. I also had agood friend of mien who does powder coating and polishing do some of my engine stuff. The LIM and water pump was powder coated. The UIm will be polished and Pcaoted with a translucent red, should be sick. He also polished up my XS power intercooler and my pipes as well. He does damn good work check him out.

here are pics of the car. when the car is white thats when it was simply sealed with house of kolor KO-sealer before the base got laid on. Shes a bit dusty on the outside becasue shes been sitting for a day or 2 now in the shop. The pictures were taken before I strated to wet sand and buff SO I will post more when She is totally done. Tell me what you guys think.

nice, I really like that color, IMO I think the blue looks alot better than the white, and would keep it that color. Not really sure I like the graphic though, and its definetly time for some new wheels. Other than that car looks good and clean.

thanks a lot glass man. Now as you guys can see i did the blue and black paint scheme everywhere. I especially liked in the engine bay since it allaowed me to keept nice and clean looking and a bit more intresting. Thought the engine bay has a ton more flake than the car it self becasue i wanted it to accent the polished parts. I molded in the rear bumper and side skirts to the body for a nice super clean look. I will also post after the wetsand and buff in a few days. The UIm is done in ghost chrome powder coat done by my friend Jordan at late night customs. he does damn good work to. heres one more pic of the dorr jams as well painted in black with a cobaly candy and blue flake over it. Loosk pitch black out of light but lights up in blue in the sun loosk sweet.

BTW did you have a shop do it, or you did it yourself ?
