I would advise removing as much stuff as you can before spraying anything. I'm sure you will re-upholster the seats, but aren't you getting overspray all over your dashboard and interior plastics? I wouldn't think scrubbing overspray off of all that stuff would be a good time. Your show though, brother. I'm just enjoying the ride.
Keep up the good progress. I come to the builds daily for this thread. Not the flashiest, but I bet I'll learn a trick or two. |
no overspray on the dash I cover it with a towel I know how hard it is to remove it takes more time removing it than covering it
This is not the final stage im just tired of looking at it in different colors black white red blue this is still gonna sit for a while parts are scattered everywhere if its not in the car I already got a plan going on but I just dont have the money to to do it once I get the coilovers wheels tand ires then im gonna hit the engine bay

I probably have the worst fd out there i had found some descent ones after i bought mine and im still finding some more. But im already hooked on this one so keep moving forward. Some people strip a perfectly running car for no reason lol
I hope i could encourage all people to finish there car thats been sitting for a while Just compare what i have to your car which is way easier to work with

Like a phoenix rising from the ashes, literally. Thanks for documenting all the stuff you're doing on this build. Who doesn't love seeing an FD get resurrected from a sure trip to the junker?
