Started the new paint job, crappy primer to flat black...

Yeah, it looks good. And that's a huge front mount you have. It will look great once it's all put back together.

It looks pretty good. I'm not a big fan of black and red rims.

2geclipselove · Oct 17, 2009

That looks great. You should get new lower moldings to match the new sexiness.

Had my doubts about the quality of the paint job, but it looks great.

Got it back last night, and I am very pleased with the job overall. Still has a couple spots where previous body showed up through paint, but that is being handled in a couple of weeks, along with two new fenders (old ones are chopped and screwed!!!). Anyways, let me know your honest opinions. I had my doubts too, but it turned out really nice IMO.

Looks great, I think it would look even better with different rims and a 2gb bumper.

I'm guessing their was no primer sealer sprayed before the color? I would honestly just rock gloss black wheels. Can't say I'm a fan of the red ring at all... on any wheel. And I'd definatly get a newer rear bumper. Looks good. Are you doing the door jambs?

rays96gst · Oct 21, 2009

We are all definitely on the same page here! Already ordered the 2gb bumper, just painting rims for temporary set up. Going rota p45r in about a month. Just dropped 3k on new clutch, flywheel, tein basics, rear bushing kit, rear hatch struts, headlights, paint, and some other misc things. Its coming along though. Oh and yes we did do the door jambs and hatchjamb, along with underside of hatch and hood, basically everything but engine bay.

Looks great in flat black, I Cant wait to see it with the new wheels and bumper.

FunWheelDrive · Oct 21, 2009

How much, if you dont mind me asking?

rays96gst · Oct 22, 2009

The paint job was through a friend and it was $1100. The new fenders are gonna be $140 for both and the bumper $100. So total is $1340.

FunWheelDrive · Oct 22, 2009

Not too shabby at all. Cant wait for the final result.

dsmwonder · Oct 23, 2009

Thats looks sick. It doesnt look uneven like other flat black paint jobs well done. Cant wait for the final result.

MyBoostedGST · Oct 23, 2009

If the car was completely 2gb, it would look great. Those Rota's in flat black with the red lip will look great as well.

Can't wait to see the final product!

b00sted_spyder · Oct 23, 2009

Glad to see a 2g saved from being riced out. You should get the engine bay painted also.
