First Stages of Paint!

[FinkenS14]

First stages of paint!!!

Im painting it in pieces for a reason. Method to my madness, dont ask. Still needs a wet sand. But Im going with a satin black. Its almost a semi gloss, but its a super deep black. I love it!!!

So far:

White Comet will be proud.

You said you were going with different wheels right?

[FinkenS14]

Ya 5 Zigen FNO1RC

[s14derrick]

Looking good so far man. I can't wait to see it when its all finished and you have the new wheels on

[Chris28]

You should go 5 lug before you go with FNO1RC's. 4 lug ones come in weak offsets.

Paint looks good though. I read the swap thread. Car is lookin good man.

[Justin35ll]

hawt

[FinkenS14]

They are 5 lug zigens already.

I forget the offset for the front but they stick out super far, but its a flush offset, and the rears are a 12 offset.

HEre are the exact wheels I bought off my buddy. Im also going to run the 25 mm spacers up front that he gave me for the front.

[nightsauce]

is that a rattle can job? if so what paint are you using?

[MastaYu]

looks very good

[FinkenS14]

Well my RB swap is done, that was the master plan.

But now Im working on interior and exterior. FInish paint, get wheels, brakes, coilovers, kouki wing, origin type 2 rear overfenders, other small stuff.

[FinkenS14]

Its spray gun. Just hasnt been wet snaded.

[FinkenS14]

I forget, were you bashing in another thread of mine or what? lol

I mean no offense

[White Comet]

that depends, what was the thread about?

[FinkenS14]

No idea, probably the progress of the car. Sitting in the grass, on 15's, with huge fender gap, and primered the hell out.

[White Comet]

def not me. i never flame for primer, that just means its a work in progress. i never flame for small wheels cuz i'm not a fan of big wheels anyways, anything over 17 is too big on a 240 imo and i never flame for wheel gap cuz everyone always tells you to slam your car but that will just negatively effect handling

[sebazztard]

^^^ so tired of hearing "slam it" , im looking forward to going back to stock suspension...seriously.

ive been following your other thread, and now this one. im very impressed with how fast your car is coming along. do you have any vids yet on youtube or something for a lil kick in the a** motivation for me?

[FinkenS14]

Not yet, but I will once I get the car running. Might have a start up video ehre in the next few days if I can get my BOV flange and a IACV tube welded on to my cold pipe

[dat411kid]

Paint came out very nice, looks evenly sprayed.

Curious though....What kind of compressor/gun combo are you using, been tossing around the idea of me painting my own car...

[Gabes13]

^^^ so tired of hearing "slam it"

I was actually thinking of making a thread.... "how HIGH can your coilovers go?"

[FinkenS14]

Not suer what kinda gun, I think it was a 125 gallon tank.

[exit7aracing]

i dont have a kit on my car yet. i do have a 92 front end on my 89, but i will say i drove around for a month with a disastrous 2 tone color when i was flat blacking mine during the early winter months
