Love Subbie WRB.
April wants to paint her 93' 300ZX world rally blue.

Do you have any better pics of it? Maybe in the sun?

So when we put on the the second coat of primer all we had left to do is wet sand it with 400. But the block sanding took 2 weeks oof a couple hours at night till I got the time to dedicate then it still took another 2 and half long *** days to get it all done right including the last coat of primer. Trying to sand off all the guide coat became a real pain in the a**.

If yours went anything like mine it was a bunch of head aches and things going wrongto work out. If there ever is a next time I think a solid color would be great or no more than two tone. Do you plan on taking yours to any shows?
its been to acouple there is no orange peel what so ever so shes a garage queen majority the time ill have to find some before pics so u can see how much of a POS this thing was

If it was me I would have left the racing stripes and just kept those but the paint job does look good. I don't see any drips or anything shady like that. Looks good man. What brand of lowering kit did you get? Eibach?
