Default Pix, car repainted, check it out.....56K beware..

here is the story, i got my teg and it look fine, but after shaving the sides and rear emblems.
I decided to just paint the shaved parts for now.
I went to the paint shop and they asked for the VIN# and colour code, and i did, SO while painting the car i relized the colour DOES NOT MATCH. and i contacted the guy who i bought the car from to see what was up and he forgot to tell me they repainted the car with a shave darker than the original colour. IT IS NOT THAT DIFFERENT, but if you look closely you can see.

I am about to go to the paint shop TOMOR and get some more paint and finish the rest of the car.

here are the URL for the pics. they are VERY BIG

Looks pretty good. A little buffing and it will be smooth as glass. Damn, you had to hack that bumper up pretty high didn't you?

dont worry guys, tomor the car is getting a REPAINT. with ONE colour, the whole car therefore no mismatching colours.


the valve cover will be painted too, same colour of the car.
