      What? "Girlfriend Katie" is out there with her finished nails, taping up the car with you, and doing it all with a smile on her face?

      Marry that girl! :)

          Looks good. I give that bumper about 3 weeks before it's going to need a repaint due to chipping

            Dude that is kick ass. That's a pretty good amount of work for a week.
            It's nice to have a garage where you can break a car down shotgun style.
            I can't wait.

            p.s. You stripped, POR'd and painted the subframe?? Awesome attention.What kind of paint did you use there?

                I painted and cleaned everything on my e30 while I had it apart like you did.
                Great looking E28

                  LOL, its funny you say that...as a matter of fact, she did just have her nails done the day before she sanded and painted the wheels....they didnt look so good after...may have to get those touched up. DOH!!

                        Actually, it should hold up quite well. I used my race car as a test mule about a year ago and it hasnt chipped at all (Ithought it would too). The green primer is a self-etching primer that prepares the metal pretty well, after sanding of course.

                            That gloss black is the POR-15. It can be left as a topcoat in areas that do not see a lot of light. POR-15 is UV sensitive and breaks down over time so if you use it on a surface that is in the sun, you need to paint over it with sometihing. Any paint will do, or you can get some other top coats from POR-15 as well. I use their Blackcote on top of the cured POR-15 in those applications.

                              Car feels great.. I absolutely love it. I was tempted to do poly bushings, etc. since I am a track whore but I wanted to keep this a comfortable street car.

                              I asked Katie how it feels and she said "its like driving an E30 now." Sweet.
