Second paint work make a ugly reaction with the basecoat. The probleme was the quality of the base coat.

The car go to a other paint shop in Montreal.
After one many weeks of waiting, I go to the paint shop to see the work. Surprise, the paint is so ugly that i decide to bring it back at home. it was pink, red, dark red and pink. I need the help of the police to bring the car because the paint shop dont want to let me have it.
(no pic of that for now)
Mars 2010
I strip all the 30 and more coats of paint to put the car on the metal.
Now the car is at a other paint shop. I think I can trust them.
The only probleme is that I can decide what color to do.
Red, bronze, Gold, Blue, green....

Hey thanks for the comment and I like gold on gold, but thats just me. My car is jdm cause I have a type r front Emblem(lol) No I have been watching your build for some time and I know what it takes, so I won't let you down just give me some time and I'm sorry to hear about the whip I know how it is to get screwed by the shop
Yeah thanks, I would like to go with a gold/bronze combo or gold/gold combo but it's hard to find the good one.Originally Posted by justanex1
