Paint Shop Update 7 - http://omgpham.com/paint-shop-update-7
Awesome day today!
Most of the panels are secured onto the body now but only a few things have been gapped properly. I just really wanted the panels back on so they could be towed home securely on the body instead of strapped down behind a ute.
The flow coat came out amazing! The guys at J&D Quality Smash Repairs*usually give it a polish too, but I figure it would be best to do that after I finish assembly. A few little extra bits need to painted and both windscreens need to be fitted up, but that's about it and I should have the car back mid-next week.
A pretty cool Lotus Elise was in the shop too :)

Installed the boot lid, rear bar and than rear garnish. These panels have been gapped properly.

Using brand new bolts and flanged nuts with washers wherever I can.

The doors/rocker panel have had their rock-guard removed and everything smoothed out. I've kept the black section though, it's gloss black and will go well with the lips/sideskirts that will also be gloss black.

Bonnet and front guards are on but not gapped yet. These panels will be removed as soon as I get the car back though, keep them safe while I get the engine and wiring done.

The guys at J&D do good work :)
Dropped by before work today and installed the front bar and fit up some brackets I had powder coated. I'm replacing any nuts/bolts I can with new ones too.

I got a wired erection all of a sudden... This is pure porn.

So fresh and so clean. Once my car is back on the road and running/driving the way it should I'd like to strip it all back down and do a complete body refresh like you've done.

My god... what a paint job!
-
This is what I want done. Any idea boys what kind of $$$$ this will require stateside?
-
I believe Adam could give a rough estimation on how a quality respray would be.

Got to see the car again today and took home some loose panels, paint looks amazing straight off the gun. But I can't wait to see what it looks like after being polished by their team.
