Ultimo que yo oi a Denizar no le queda ningunos. Tenia uno de cada color hace unos años pero ya no. Se que en Orlando hay various RX3 y creo que hay por lo menos un SP mas no contando los que Denizar tenia, pero de eso no estoy seguro.

Well I got my inner fenders back they are not like original look but they will do since is a one piece I'm good with that . I primed them good so when I get ready to put on they will hold up. I will scuff up again and probably put undercoating will see. I'm pretty much done with my rx8 so back to my rx3 .

Top picture shows undercoating then bottom white paint with surface rust. I grinder down more of the rust off and undercoating before I primed it . Is pretty solid some minor areas but not to worried about it happy so far I thought it was worst,

More stripping undercoating and tar mats and floor looks so much better than I though made my day . You can see where rust took over in some area but I'm ok with it since I really thought it was going to be in a lot worst . Can't wait to strip it remove primed area sand it and respray with some real good stuff , I don't want nothing black in car . I decided to paint my car back to original color white . So floors may go grey or something for chassis in grey or white black looks so bla lol
