Just picked this baby up last week for 4000$ and can't wait to get started on it! It's a 1994 GT-S with just over 200000 kms on it, runs like new!
The day I bought her: It's in pretty good shape other than a few minor rust spots that I'll be getting touched up as soon as all the snow melts, and a small dent in the hood. Also the front Toyota badge is broken, just ordered a new one from the dealer today. Hard to see in this picture but it looks like somebody closed the hood and there was something under it and it made the dent and they tried to fix it Some more pictures: First "mod" haha, thought I would take off the badge while I wait for a new one but didn't notice there was 2 holes for it so I left it in (upside down ) Just put a new Alpine head unit in yesterday: Have a 10" JL sub that I took out of my old car, will be building a box and wiring it in when I get a chance Plans: - TRD replica shifter knob (ORDERED) http://www.ebay.com/itm/140920873419?item=...160&vxp=mtr - Black shift boot with red stitching - GT-Four riser blocks (ORDERED) - SpreeLED full car kit (ORDERED) - White or gold wheels, thinking Rota Boost Golds: http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-CxD1GXhcLmY/UGdA...600/boost_2.jpg - Possibly JDM tails - Short ram intake - GT-Four front end conversion - Mesh for the front grille - Possibly fog lights - Clear sidemarkers and turn signals This post has been edited by PegGTS: Apr 3, 2015 - 3:49 PM -------------------- 2007 Impreza 2.5i - Daily

Thanks for the advice everyone! I think what my main problem was was that the cans were way too cold. It was probably about 0 Celsius / 32 Fahrenheit when we were doing it, and I didn't realize that the cans needed to be warm before doing it. When it started coming out bubbly we just got frustrated haha and I think that's what really messed us up, we started trying all sorts of things to make it work. Spraying lights coats, thick coats, spraying far away, from close...how far away should you spray from when doing it? As far as taking the wheels off, I don't have a jack at the moment and saw a few videos from DipYourCar explaining how to do it with the wheels still on. I'm assuming I should peel it all off and start again?
