        p.s. I hope you go with a chrome kidey instead of body color
        I was thinking to apint it either, body color or black just...not sure what to do...chrome is gone for ever.

        5 lug is under the way right now. I will be putting later Rondel #58 16x7.5 but for now I would go just for basketwaves 16x7.5 , I have them in my shopp.

        yeah, i'm not forgetting about the Koni sticker;) Some minor details I have to work on yet. Like I said is just some preview...hopefully next week is goign to be painted. We had/have so muich work, so customers were/are first than me...

          come on man, chrome kidney would look good on that paint job,
          are you leaving the spoiler on when you paint the rest of the car? (the bottom half of the spoiler)
          and jordan why wont the bottom half stay on the car without the top?

            The bottom wil stay just fine. Its just got a bunch of holes in it, and very abrupt edges without the top to cover it.

                      Avus Blue!

                      Avus is a really nice color. I thought about it but decided to go with original Diamondschwarz to avoid doing the underside of the hood, deck lid, and door jambs. New paint emphasizes the aging of the rest of the car and trim. I'm in the 4th. month of a "spare time" repaint. You should end up with a good result as the shop looks like it has a good booth to paint in. Part of what makes a repaint so expensive is that a good downdraft booth with heater for baking costs between $50,000- $100,00. They're really picky about their air in L.A. A shop that turns out 5-8 cars a day needs two of them

                        Avus

                        That avus looks sweet, how much did you spend for paint like that color. Im going to paint me es, but I wanted to just paint it black because black is cheap, but if something like that isn't much more I gotta check that out.

                        Thanks

                            Well, it's painted, just missing the side mirrors, both valances, inside the trunk, inside the car and the engine bay.

                            Keep in mind the car is just painted and no polish is applied yet.
                            Very dirty as well.

                              Looks incredible Diego. Great work. Wish you painted the engine bay in the same super gloss color!
