I'm finally back in Mozambique and have been reunited with my newly painted Celi! The color is supposed to be Candy Apple Red, but I don't think they did enough coats, so its not that rich. At night, its a bit richer. But I love it nonetheless! Enjoy!

Here's a darker shot of the paint.



Here are some close ups at daylight.





I also asked them to mold the sideskirts and the rear splitters. I didn't have the front splitters done cause I'm still looking for a different bumper or lip.













That's the end!

Thanks everyone! Yes, I had the skirts cut a little bit just to be different. I don't know if you can see them from the pictures but i have black wire mesh covering the slits from behind. Now I just need the 404a lip to finish her.

Until the next itch.... tongue.gif
