how wet are the doors?
What do you mean? They are bone dry.. Before they went on my car they were baked at 85 degrees celcius for 30 minutes, left to cool, and then driven 30 minutes back to my house
call me crazy but it looks like it is a different color than the rest of the car.
You caught me :p. Everything we did in this batch came out a bit lighter for some reason. Its only most noticeable when you compare the door to the quarters, so we're going to respray the quarters once i get the car running and i can drive it to the shop
that is always my fear when painting in stagesHaha, so it took a painter to notice :p. Not one person who has looked at it in person or in this forum or my local forum have said anything yet.. so maybe its not that noticeable to those who dont know about it?
no, sorry im not a painter, just someone who has seen cars painted in stages, mostly body kits
haha aww man now thats all i see. that sucks, but its not to bad. Theres nothing you can do?
As I said before, its most noticeable between the quarters and doors.. so once i have it driving again, my friend is going to respray the quarters at the shop. You cant really tell between hood/fenders/roof so it should be good.
I put the car on teh driveway today and washed the dust off it, so it was ALL glossy, not just glossy doors/fenders/bumpers and dusty ass shell haha. I always love how small my car looks when I'm actually standing more then 4 feet away from it.
I think those wheels look great with the blue paint.
Powdercoated white RPF1's would look so so so sick.

This thing looks so good man. I bet you can't wait till it's all together and ready to roll. Paint looks amazing, wheels looking amazing, I can't say it enough. Only thing I would do is go lower, but I don't know what your plans are, or maybe I missed them.
I wanna get coilovers.. but its not high on the priority list right now. No cash for such things. I will go lower, I probably wont tuck, but ill at least get rid of all the wheel gap so the fender sits level with the top of the tire. Especially the back.
Have you even driven it yet with the new engine?
Haha I wish.. it hasn't even started yet. Needs some small shitty finicky things done still.
Wow...so your going from being used to driveing a stock d16 to a turboed b-series. That's gonna be a world of difference the first time you get it on the road.
