| the primer stage... 3 healthy coats of primer and tomorrow i get to sand it all uber smooth with 600 wet/dry. I can't wait! =) the paint cart shot... i use nothing but PPG paints. Their quality is A+. On the cart we have... DP40 Primer surfacer and it's catalyst; Deltron High solids clear coat with catalyst; Medium thinner; 3:1:1 Satin black paint (silver can); PPG Ferrari-ish Red (custom shaded); and the guns...2 Binks (one for primer/basecoat and one for touch ups) and a paasche (base coat and clear)
 the mirrors i had posted the other day with the mounts...
 Louvered panel... after primer i found a couple of pinholes i missed. =/ This is going to need touching up sometime monday afternoon.
 A while back i had sent a bumper i made to get a mold made... the guys shop went up in flames along with the plug. Somehow while making the plug, I started making a second bumper with a slightly different design. Somewhere midstream i decided to just get a WW fascia and finish this up sometime after the Z is done. I know how some of you feel about the bass-fishin' look, and i dont care. =P
 i got rid of those nasty ass bulges the veilside nose has... put the light back where they were with the OEM fascia and reshapped the IC inlet to allow more flow for a larger intercooler...
 overall side view...
 that's it for today... im heading out to pic up some women and drown my sorros in their... um... tallents ;) i'll be back sometime tonight to take care of the flames... Ted
