Well thought I'd post pics I got almost half the car done today, the rest will be tomorrow.

few emblems I picked up, never said I'd badge it with the supercharger emblem but screw it.


for the rear bumper


last but not least the color it'll be when it's all said and done, for those that didn't catch it should be fun seeing before/after pics

snagged a few more did the rest of the sanding.. just pull pieces sand the rest and let the games begin. I figure I'll leave the mesh the way it is sets off the outer rim, exhaust tips being shiney.

where I was talking about placing the emblem

No idea yet.. my brother works down at a dealer body shop has all the goodies... we did find why the car has a salvage title in Florida the frame on the drivers door was pretty much cobbled. He's going to fix it right, and align the body panels, we think it shifted the panels a little bit and who ever decided to fix it never did a good 100% job of it.

yeah they are

few more pics.. we'll have the fiberglass parts painted next time. We were going to paint the bumpers, but need the flex agent primer I know it's nothing major, but that'll be next week when we get to painting. I'm anxious as heck to see a huge portion of it blue.

So far so good. I like the emblems. I would probably place them 1/2" further down, so they're not so close to the trim. Either way, they should add a nice touch.
It's going to look good in blue.
