[Demoniam]

All I got today was test out the cargo area, via grocery shopping!

 

[brouhaha]

Parked it under a tree outside a friend's apartment and got it crapped on by birds (argh)
I'd got some body work done in early June - would the paint have cured by now so I can wash the car?

 

[Kansei]

I love midnight blue...

yeah we know (kiss)

So today... today I got my wrinkle red valve cover back on (I posted some pics of it before I installed.. going to sleep in a few so I don't have time to upload the newer pics yet). I really, really like the way it looks under there.

Hood Update ---------

I just got back from checking on my hood. I actually was inside the baking oven with the painter (it was 140 in there, felt sooooo good). There's 3 coats of clear on it, but the CF is still causing a couple pits where the previous painter had sanded down to bare CF. There's also some scratches under the paint on the passenger side from whoever was sanding it forgetting to go to a finer grit on that spot. The guy painting it is going to wetsand it all tomorrow and if everything is hidden well enough (scratches, pits) I'll just put it on as-is. If not, he'll go back to work and see what he can do. I'm reeeally hoping wetsanding fixes things so that I can have the hood on for the central NY meet on Saturday and Zoom Zoom Live Boston on Sunday

... yeah I totally forgot to take pictures of the hood when I was staring at it's glossy beauty in the oven
