Next Stage
Ok we have finally reached the stage where the car gets painted. I had the painfull task of picking a colour. I have a wall with colour chips, there are about 5000 chips plus the shades and pearls that change the chips. So the choice makes you go mad. I finally got a blue I liked and selected a blue pearl to go over it. It has a nice effect.

That is such a nice shade of blue, I've always had a thing for blue cars 
That shade almost reminds me of the Astra OPC blue, or S3 (new) blue, which is hot! I'm glad u decided to be different, it'll pay off. U don't see a lot of blue s13's around! 
Are u going 2 fit any kind of body kit, or staying with the original cars design?

The only way forwards, is SIDEWAYS

With the car in the state was in before painting I would have done few things different...
* Seem weld chassis
* Roll cage
* Body kit
* Bonnet vent
* prepare valance for V-Mount
* partly smooth engine bay... remove all the ugly brackets
* Black roof
Very cool anyhow you look at it... Can't wait for finished product.

Hey guys,
The door handles were not removed but the rubbers that surround them were taken off. Dont know about a kit Warren I did not want to do anything until I saw what the natural lines looked like in this colour. I did not want to go into so much detail with the car. I have done that with other cars and I want something different with this one. I want to use this car as a road race car. Plus I have three project cars being done so I cant put all my resources into one car. Good thoughts though Vlade thanks for the comments.
