Here are a few update pics as of 2 days ago, friday. The shop still has a couple more steps before they consider the rear ready to be primed.Oh and those are the 295s on the rear.

UPDATE! Whole car is primed and ready for painting WOOT!..They are doing paint tomorrow. IF they stay on track it will be wet sanded and polished thursday, taken to the shop on friday for the toe rod install and alignment as well as the gold TA stripe on the rims....OH MAN!...almost there.

edit: forgot to mention, like some of you know Im sticking with the PPW paint. The guys at the shop went through some paint cards and found the paint code that takes the most of the yellow tint out of the pearl as possible. This Iam happy about, still get the pearl look but closer to a white white.

Caught the shop in the middle of the day and took some pics. They finished painting all the black parts, they still need to wet sand and polish them though. As for the car, well you can look at the pics. They sounded pretty confident saying the car will be completely painted, wet sanded, and polished by tomorrow evening. More pics to come tomorrow...unless the car is together then I will wait and do some decent photos most likely.

The hard part will be finding someone to take some good pics, besides my half assed photography skills. I'll probably be a dick and take one A$$ shot of the car as a teaser until I find someone with skills for photos.

Im pretty sure its not the new one, Iv had it over a year, its the G200 exhaust.

Waizzz: you know it man, white and black naturally look good together

Yeah, thats the V2 spoiler from them..but dont be fooled. The was a 2" gap up front during fitment, the fiber glass was paper thin on the base of the spoiler, and once in place the center blade was over 3" to short. The shop had to end up making the spoiler molded into the car and they added multiple layers of fiber glass to the spoiler so it would be stiff....Im pretty sure you remember the issues though, heh.

I couldnt make up my mind on that so I just asked them to paint them black and put them on there. It would look good without them but I also like it with them
