Finally got some sunshine here. Figured I'd try and get a good picture or two of the new paint scheme...

looks good. i really like the way you seperated it... like in the back how it curves down and stuff. im trying to do gold and black on my car.. but its gonna take me forever to save up for that

Very nice man! So do you still have air ride?

I took the air ride out when the turbo went in. Problem with air ride was no traction at times, and turbo would have really magnified that. Plus I needed the space for the motorized bumper.
 
Nice and clean :)

I personally liked it better all yellow, but that is just me. What a way to stand out!

Loved your ride from the start

The Two-tone is right on. I'd love to see that in Red.
 
it looks really good. did you paint the inside of the hatch black from the window up? i can see some yellow through where the hatch meets the c-pillar in the second pic..not trying to nit-pick just noticed it..

One side is painted, but the hatch itself isn't because I will be doing a stereo reconstruction this spring, so I'm holding off doing anything to the inside of the hatch until the new fiberglassing is done, just in case I need to follow some different lines inside

Weird thing is I just checked the car and you cannot see the yellow from any angles, must be some weird reflection thing going on

I don't want to even lie....I am getting a P5 just to imitate a 10th of what you have done....Its so perfect I cant even see changing anything...Except the yellow showing through as mentioned...I would take care of it with black vinyl similar to what seperates the front and rear doors.(2thumbs)

The vinyl might be a good interim solution THX

Nah, I took about 12 different pictures of each pose from the tripod. I was playing around with the different speed, aperature, iso, etc settings on my SLR. Some show the yellow worse than others, not sure why. So I just grabbed a better one of the set from that angle (there were 11 to choose from). I only took about 200 pictures to get these 2 which I figured were post worthy
 
Dude, I hate you for looking so damn good. You make mine look like junk. Why ya gotta hate on me like that? Haha, I really like your car, hopefully mine will be able to elicit such reactions someday.
 
Looks great Bigwoofer.

You guys always have sun out in BC. I hate you guys with your warm winter weather. :)
