I'm sticking with DG as the color... I've been tempted to switch to a bronzish color that's looked amazing on a few vehicles we've been doing for a local construction company... but at this point I want my car back as soon as possible, and I don't want to have to get inside the engine bay and everything.

FYI the glue holding the spoiler to the deck lid is a rooooyal PITA. Etching the deck lid in DG today and hopefully I'll have the rest of my car prepped for paint by the end of the day tomorrow... Paint Wednesday, reassembly Thursday, and hopefully the glass guy can put the glass back in on Friday. This is all very tentative because I have no idea what other craziness the week will bring, but it's exciting for me nonetheless!

For those who are wondering, the headlights are using stock bulbs (not sure why the pic came out with a blueish tint). The clear corners and clearance strips now match the whiteness of the headlights. I think I like it, but I'll have to wait 'til I see her outside at night to tell if it's too ricey for me or not. If so, I think I'll keep the white clearance strips but put back the regular bulbs in the clear corners.

As projected- my car ended up having to sit to the side all week. Customers come first, unfortunately.

My car is however, completely prepped for paint and my best painter is coming in tomorrow morning with me to get it done! Finally.

Almost there... aligning trunk, putting on spoiler, and a massive cleaning of the interior awaits...

Also, I'm digging how clean the trunk looks without the lettering... I'll be slapping on the the Mt. Fuji in the center and nothing else.
