So who said you can’t make a silk purse from a sows ear.
This looks like a completely different car. Well done Gary.

Personally I love the colour and putting any stripes or decals in it would be sacrilege. If want to add anything do it with decals after which can always be removed if unsuccessful.

I had a 350Z in almost the same finish which was my only outright choice of car/colour.

Thanks.
 

This is exactly the conclusion that I came to yesterday. If the stripes had gone ahead and been sprayed on and I didn’t like it then it would not be reversible without massive work and expense. I can always add vinyl at a later date if I feel the need.

Nearly spilled my beer when I initially saw he red rear end!

Then realised it must be reflection from a heat lamp or similar?

Never ceases to amaze me when you see a fresh paint job wet sanded back like that and then polished back up.

I just did exactly the same with the morning coffee.

It’s ready to come home tomorrow!

 

I don’t think I will be able to sleep tonight and cannot wait to see the finish. Great photos @Marto303 and I am sure it will look superb in the flesh.
