Newest Pics - Blue Pearl Coat

Hello All, Newest Pics- PPG Blue Pearl Coat Paint.
They say not to mix different brands of paint..... but this is what you get.
Dupont Choma Base Clear on Top.
I took sunset pics to show the purple flash in the paint.


RECAP:2yrs ago I hit a sign, then the Trans went out, then the frame core-support broke out..After a summer of rebuilding, welding and painting. -Its done.

Special thanks to njseltd and many others.






Looks like i may be selling the car this summer though, Needs a good home if anyone is interested.

I give you major props for 2 reasons. The car doesnt have chrome rims on it, the car is a hot color, and most importantly of all, YOUR HOOD SCOOP WORKS! Yes... I got that ecstatic over a hood scoop that works...

The scoop looks very clean to me and the blue looks good. Keep up the good work.

No i havent yet. Its ALOT louder than before. Also gained some HP - this was the test... When crusing in 2nd (AUTO) if i hammer the gas all the way down, it downshifts to 1st and burns the tires all the way out to 2nd gear.

I think the wheels are either too light now or i need more traction, i run eagle f1's in front.

I just lowered the car guys. last yr. Tokico illumina springs/struts.

Would look much better tho w/19's or something tho.

I think that different wheels is all you need now. For more drop I wouldn't do anything but coil-overs

Congratulations on your nicely painted ride, I would keep the car after all

the hard work that was spent on it and I know for a fact that the car Is

probally in it's best shape since it came off the dealers lot. I would not sell It

since the numbers of finding a another 4th gen are getting limited. If you

have something that is running good keep it.

A loud color for a sedan, but it works here - reminds me of the R34 blue.
