    are you painting it the same color? I like blue but I always thought your car was a little bit too dark/dull looking, but maybe it's because it needed new paint. :P

            Please remove the windows and trim to paint the car... otherwise its incredibly halfass.
            Good color choice tho.

              Yes, don't worry, it's taking some time , customers are first than me and I have sometime some free time to do it. We are about to take off the rest of the windows.

                  You mean actually painting a car Avus, instead of whatever blue is on your car?

                      The bottom half of the M-Technic II rear wing, just the spoiler section. As first seen on my car... can't leave it like that though without a bunch of modfications.

                          We use PPG as well, one of the best paints out there for automotive finish.

                            Some other update:

                            Trim windows aren't taken off yet, but will go off to make the job well.

                            The whole front/rear/side M tech II spoilers aren't tighted into the body.
                            Just was a pre fit for test.
