    Did a test panel and then applied some paint to one of the new side skirts to see how it looks

    Thank you. I will have to raise it a little to clear the new side skirts but it should still look low

    Painting the front bumper and some smaller pieces today. Did the last sideskirt yesterday. Also had to switch to the factory wheels because the 16's make the car too low with the new sideskirts. The search is on for some new 17" wheels

    What kind of paint gun is that? I'm about to paint my motorcycle. I was planing on hanging plastic to keep over spray from getting everywhere, but it looks like you don't have anything covered.

    its my buddies gun but I can post what it is tonight. I would recommend hanging a tarp or plastic to protect everything else from overspray. the base color isn't really the problem as much as the clearcoat.

    Last night the car died on the way home from work. From a quick look the supercharger belt is shredded. Not sure what caused it or if anything else broke as well. [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    Looking good - great progress. When the pull let go, any other issues?
