    looks like you lay paint really well to. i see no orange peel. :up:
    I don't paint nor do any body work, with the exception of wet sanding and polishing. I had to have the car sent out for paint and body and there are a few things Im not happy with but Court knows about them fully.

    Everything else on the car from the S50 swap(thanks to Luke, Justin, James and Nigel for helping out) to the complete re-assembly (thanks to Reid and Jeff for helping out) was me and my shop Accuracy Automotive.

    One minor detail, the passenger side front corner of the hood is out of alignment. Great to see the old chin spoiler I sold you about a decade on there but where is the tech I rear?
    Yeah, I pulled some LATE nights trying to make sure the car looked as good as possible for the picnic. But there are still many little things to do, as is always the case. :)

    This was all to make sure Court's car to go to the E30picnic in his absence, and it did it's job well and definitely turned some heads.

    guess it's time to update this, Car is done, too bad it made it to the Picnic without me, but I'm happy with the turnout and can't wait to freakin drive it! (borrowed from the Picnic thread)
