So after much thought put in to the repairs of a buddies accident in my car. I finally took the plunge and paid to get the car repainted a different color.

I should have the car back in about a week. I miss my baby!!:tear:

It will be ready soon. here is the progress so far.

The fit was ok, my bodyshop made them perfect. They are made by B-majic i think.

TopGear8 02-07-2010 11:20 PM

Here is a teaser of the yellow.

Went by the shop today and they painted the jams and trunk area yellow. So here is a sneak peak at the special yellow I am getting.

Its very nice *in Borat voice* The first picture is a better color match. Also the sun is setting..

So who is going to get some hot Bebo to do a photshoot exclusive with my car when its done? :2thumbs:

Still working on the base coat, its a real thin paint and it takes allot to cover the car. It is drying again and my painter found there was some previous crappy work done in teh rear drivers quearter panel. So they are working that and making it look as flawless as possible!! I AM GOING NUTS IN ANTICIPATION TOO :angry9: BUT alas, I know good work takes time.

Here are todays shots!!

Looking good, what kind of fenders you got over there? Looks awesome!

djcharlee 02-25-2010 03:34 PM

I have had allot of PM's for cost of job. I am being sponsored by this shop so I can't say how much it would cost, I honestly dont know. All I know is that they are a quality shop that do top quality work. They use the best materials and will give the customer options depending on budget and what is the customers intentions for the car.

They are located in Lemon Grove, San Diego. It is right off the 94 freeway.

Here is the information
