That is rich looking! It appears a little darker then Porsche silver. Very classy.

Looks good. |
honestly.....its a $1200 paint job. It took the guy about a month and a half to do it. I took the car apart, and had all of the individual pieces painted, and then reassembled the car when i got it back. Of course i did the wetsanding/buffing on the car. Thats the biggest difference between a cheap paint job, and an expensive one. Paint was BASF Limco, with a higher quality clear. I have a couple of small issues, but the guy is going to fix it when i get my Yellowbird bumpers painted.
here is what it looked like when i bought the car last spring http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p...t/DSC00588.jpg here is what it looked like when i picked it up from the painter. BTW, this was done in a shed in his back yard, with NO junk in the paint at all. http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p...t/PIC-0031.jpg |
Stunning!

I love this shot. Paint looks like it's still wet. Really beautiful car, the whole package looks perfect.

Wow!!!!!

Very neat, what a difference from when you got it! Looks like a good paint job (I for one am glad you took it apart yourself) nobody can do it in a more passionately preserving way than yourself (atleast I think so), I like that "Zymol" wax.
|
It looks fantastic! Thanks for sharing, I'm encouraged to know my SC can look that nice one day esp since my car looks like your "before" picture, great job.
