Show and Shine Preparation - Part 1 (Spot the GTR)

[Blitz]

Thought I would throw a few piccys up of the way my car looks right at this moment. Call it a shell of its former self

This is a snippit of the work thats currently underway in preparation for the Show and Shine event.

This used to be my silver R33 GTR

And here is the mad scientist at work. I stood and watched this guy for a bit - im looking forward to the end result!

[Tosh]

oh yeh!! nice one mate.. look forward to seeing it all finished

[benm]

...im just looking forward to seeing it all put back together with the end result being a GTR.

I'll give ya fifty dorah for each front guard :wassup:

Lemme guess, fluro pink ?

[Guest RedLineGTR]

what are your exact plans for it?? how long will you be without the car for??? looks like alot of work good luck with it all

[Blitz]

RedlineGTR: The car is receiving some serious panel preparation ready for a custom respray with best quality finish possible.

No fluro colours - but rather an extremely high gloss metallic titanium mix.

Project is around 3 weeks worth so a bit to go yet

[alstar]

was there any thing wrong with it ie panal damage.... or you just put some love into it....

[Blitz]

No panel damage at all - as evident by the pics. Just getting the overall finish to show quality standards

[Duncan]

Are you sure its not in the process of being rebirthed?

[B-Man]

Hmmmm we better fix that best interior / best exterior thing hey.

Nice one Blitz - I wish I could afford to do mine too ATM - But will have to wait until more funds are available.

I think I'll be going with my standard colour - but I want to put 2 nice thick racing stripes down the length of the car - What do ya reckon ??

[Merli]

Are you stripping it? I'll take the gearbox :D

[Blitz]

No flames B-Man?

This is still based on a factory colour which is good. Will be happy once I see the finished product.

[hawks]

3 weeks from start to finish? good stuff !!!

hope it all goes to plan

[Jimbo2000]

[Blitz]

Jimbo: similar

PS: Was that you beeping and Akira and I on the highway the other day?

[Jimbo2000]

[Blitz]
