alright you all make me sick.(BTW i mean sick like wow i want my car to look that nice) its my turn to do my car.

-I'm going to paint it black instead of the factory red.
-shave everything off the hatch, shave hood squirters
-smooth every seam in the jambs
-not sure if i want to shave door handles and filler cap or not
-give it the ole coomer engine bay treatment(thats last)
-color match my wheels(maybe)
-eventually make some tail lights from the stock one...until them smoked tails or candy red them
-projecters (eventually)
-shave side markers and put on the small euro style markers
-and i am looking into a new front end, which is the reason i am posting.....are there many pictures of supra -bumpers on celicas with celica lights?
-i dont care about fabrication of anything becasue i work at a hot rod shop and the owner used to make fiberglass bodys

project sinister is about to begin

it might be costly but the viper black is an awsome black.it ither had a red flake or blue i cant remeber. i was looking at the gunmetal grey a while back but i didnt feel comfotable shooting a 3 step paint process yet since im still learning and have only done a couple cars.

yeah i have heard that black is pretty nice. i was also thinking about a black cherry color. dont worry about shooting a tri coat color, not pearls atleast. they are alot easier than you think, just get something small fro practice and shoot the 2nd coat like you would a normal base coat with metallic in it.....kandys are a little different, really good gun technique is a must for kandys

also an update : i painted my block and head a nice aluminum and my exhaust manifold cover and valve cover flat black...the valve cover will be painted a "crackle" black the next time i change my oil( i rushed the prep and some of the black peeled)
