Nice work on the hatch!! You need to open up a body shop...you do fiberglassing, body work and paint...Thats a nice color u picked there!! Reminds me of a acura tsx blue
thanks bro. yeah i might do this this on the side or something to make some money but still thinkin about it...its extremely time consuming.
Alittle update on the progress: I flippin hate sanding! lol ive been wetsanding all the parts and almost done with the car but wow its taking way longer than i thought. heres a few pics of the hood wetsanded ready for paint and the hatch trim and the front part of the mirrors i painted satin black, enjoy

It'll be glorious.
That better not be debris I'm seeing in that paint..
lol if your talking about the door hinges i painted..it probably is because i painted them outside, not in the booth. you wont even see the back side of the hinge anyways it was just a quick test of the paint i was ancsious to see something shine lol
seeing it all together will be Awe-some haha .. nice choice on the color
wow really great work there! i love that front bumper as well and hope you make more!. and i was going to vote with black until i saw the color you decided on and i think you made the right choice that color is amazing!
Well today was the bigggg day painted the body....but so much went wrong. let me start off by saying i spend allll of last night cleaning and preppin the car in the booth havent slept at all. so morning came and everything was ready and going smooth..cleaned my gun before mixing the paint and sure enough my gun starts leaking so i dissasembled it and stopped the leak so yayready for the basecoat..first coat layed on nice, second coat my freakin gun started hattin and leaked
. it dropped in 2 spots which pissed me off..so i had no choice but to tape a small towel on the leak and move on so i did. then the strap on my mask broke finishing the last coat of base so more anger
lol. so i semi fixed it and moved on to the clear coat at this point i was sooo freakin exasted and the morning was getting hoooot as hell. so during the clear i accidentally ran a few spots, my gun was messing up, and my pants touched wet clear. But other than my horrible day im glad its done everything will be fixed durring wetsanding i hope. sorry for the long story lol..ill post up pics soon the sun was setting so i couldnt get the best pics.

Looks good i would like to see some close ups.....Nice work glad to see your done. I have a good idea on how much work you put in it. I have been stripping all the trim/glass/moldings off of my new coupe and it is very time consuming. I still new a few more trim pieces and clips for when it goes back together but i have time to figure that out.
holy shit i love it!
