Getting ready for paint, My passenger's side fender was busted Options

Nice! What's the color choice, and are you keeping the hood texture?

Can't wait to see it at the meet.

[conus00]

Yep, the hood is gonna stay CF. I'm thinking about dark, vibrant blue.
Here are the Photoshopped ideas:



I'm not sure what is the last call for the meet but the prep has been taking more time then I expected. I might need to stay in Ohio for first week (or so) in June.
Our stuff is getting loaded on the United VanLines semi on the 29th but Celi might not be able to make it to Tampa until (possibly) June 7th.

That design is awesome...the rear is very M3-like.

And as of right now, the meet is on the 3rd...but it might have to move because Samir might not be able to make that date.

Thanks!
If you could bump it, it would be great. As of now the 3rd of June is very iffy for me, all my stuff will be in Tampa but I (with Celi) might be stuck in Ohio.

More work done, more pictures...




@SwissFerdi did you guys change the meet date or is it still on for June 3rd?
If it is I will (unfortunately) definitely NOT to be able to attend. My car is not gonna be ready to drive down to Tampa until (at least) second week in June.

More pictures.
More bondo:

Coat of grey primer:


Starting wetsending:



...and at this point my "friend" reneged on our deal and started asking me for more money (even though he still owes me around $1,400). Long story short, after getting sheriff involved I was (literally) kicked out of shop and had to put Celi together in parking lot so I could move her to my friend's barn to finish putting ground effects on her.


I'm moved down to Tampa now and will be looking for reasonable shop to finish painting her.
I'm pissed out of my mind at my "friend" and considering legal action.

i like the shopped pic with currens and dual exhaust!!! looks good hope it works out for you

[garin]

yea man great ideas... check out toyota 8L5 paint!

[SwissFerdi]

Sad to see your friend fukced you over, that truly does suck.

Meet is at the 10th although I won't be attending. Wish I could do both things, but alas that's not possible.
