Ok good.

I'm glad my packing skills survived intercontinental travel!

Awesome. Did you already get the car? Or is it in transit now?
Did you buy it from VeilSide Japan?

I hate it, that kit ruins the car. To each his own.

However, you did a very nice job. Everything looks complete and clean. Good work.

thats what I was told as well, im doinf the same color as I did on my Z verde artemis...its a 3 stage pearl and is found on the 40th anniversary 2003 murcialago,..im going to keep the two tone effect with the black as well

thats just one thing, who knows the rest of the car could be trashed.

I really do hope you got an amazing car.

but sometimes there are cars out there that have crazy body work done to them because they were previously trashed and once you get under them and take a good look yourself and see that you might want to walk away from the sale...

you are stuck trusting someone else's word (risky auto buying technique)

I looked at 4 FD's before I purchased my 95'

I'm located in Portland, and I drove, took trains and finally flew out to Arizona to pick up my car (and I was looking for a clean roller)

just saying that if I was paying that much money, that I'd fly out and personally inspect the car myself.

It looks to me like you got yourself a beautiful car.
