Re: Mach ! Resurrection

Ah paint is done.....who hoo!!
took a littler longer than expected...they tried to match the paint with the water base and couldn't get close after several attempts with test strips
the paint rep had to come in and digital snap a photo and the end result was that since the car was paint in the mid 2000 they used solvent base, so when we mixed up a sample and it was a perfect match!

Here are some shots..

The parts were painted late Friday evening, so not gonna install the front bumper till Monday as the paint is still soft and any hard handling could leave some finger prints in the clear..lol so better to wait...head light bezel and front clip to be all aligned Monday. Sticker also to be installed on lower front fender Monday as well....
Only bad part is we are expecting 15 cm of snow Monday..so the car will have to wait till Thursday before I can take her home..
