hey erich did you respray it yourself? looks really nice....it was white before wasn't it if i remember rightly!!
would really like to have the 90 resprayed....but would have to be something we did our selves, and having never done it before would probably come out really shocking, although probably would still be an improvement. :p
Thought i might add mine, althoe not doing anything it's had a polish :)
I'll post some more when it's in action
Hi, yes I sprayed it myself - I disassembled all the panels off the chassis except for the seat supports as I didn't want to remove the ECU, ABS etc. Then each panel was stripped bare of all glass, seals etc. It started off white, each panel was undercoated with a 2 pack hifill, rubbed back with 1000 and then 3 coats of base coat (silver) and 3 coats of clear coat. All steel sections - firewall, inside doors, were primed with POR15 first. All internals were later doused with 3M rust preventative cavity wax. I have a couple of panels to redo but overall it came out OK - very time consuming - the best part of 3 months. Erich.Quote:

Hi, thanks. I have done a bit of spray painting but still have a lot to learn - self taught - and I never rush a job. There are a lot of tricks to know. I also use only good quality paint and materials.
