This time, with a new and final color choice.

I'm going to do a bit of a recap, start to now.

To start with, I decided I just wanted to paint my NSX:

And then I decided I didn't like the body kit

Smoothed out and primered:

Painted black:

And then, a color and wheel change:

And now, the new color:

Will most likely be painting the wheels to match, I will figure that out after I get the body painted.

This color is going to be SEXY.

No, I just had alot of black on hand at first so it went black. Then, I sanded it all down and I was painting my Bumblebee Candy Apple Red, but I had to have a metallic sterling silver as a base so I used some of that on the NSX, and then sanded it down again, and after I do some more body work the blue will be going on as the final color. I liked the other colors, but none of them really popped at me, this one is GORGEOUS.

The bumper in front of the car, along with my Camaro. I can't wait to see this painted. I need to do ALOT of work around the windows from where I had them taped before and pulled it off.. screwed things up pretty bad.

GTS Blue Pearl. No. 28129

The hood will most likely stay black. I can't wait to paint the body.. but it will be a little while.

The bumpers are boring and where are the doors?!

How is it "boring?" Because it doesn't have big gaping holes and fins sticking out of it? Sorry, but that looks stupid. Body kits are ***.

Now, the car looks smooth and sleek. Yeah, the doors are gone. Oh well, it's not a real life car. It adds to the smooth part of the project.
