Oh Yeaaa The Tow hook, so i dont have to constantly take off my bumper:

Welded in a plate to the subframe that dropped down quite a bit to attach it too.

Well I did some more Patch welding to make the firewall look flush. Took out any large protrusions and such.

Prepped for Paint:

Paint time (An PPG Epoxy Primer to prevent rust):

Your bay would look SICK with what we are doing... The contrast between the silver and black sparkle would be amazing...

I am trying to get to be as unique as possible, my goal with this car is to try and get a little mag spread.

 

[1QIKPNY]

Wow it's been awhile since I looked in on this thread there's been some serious work going on. Looks awesome.

 

[1BADHRSE]

All Epoxy primed then sanded, Bondo'd then sanded, Icing puttied then sanded, heavy Primed then threw the front end on dolly. lol

Loaded up on a trailer for transport.

Moved the car into the body work area of the Race Shop.

Both my buddies (Jay & Eddie) are Dyson Racing Employees so I was lucky enough to be able to work on the car in here and use there paint booth.

Wet Sanding:

Jay Epoxy Priming the Strut tower brace booster and MISC parts.

I literally had to leave right after *Final Kleaning* the bay and blowing it off last night. I didnt even get see the first swipe of basecoat. I had to go to work . My buddy Eddie the Painter sent me one picture right after spraying the bay, I still havent seen the bay in person yet but he likes the way it turned out so I trust him.
We were going to bring the car back to our shop today but instead it down-poured all day and we just left the car at the race shop. After a night of partying hard we all just wanted to relax today lol.

This is the only glimpse I have see so far myself.

Tomorrow I will have some real shots for you and i am anxious as hell to see it myself!

Picture of my buddy Jay's truck:
