Smile PrOjEcT Z06 VETTE

ok i just bought a 2005 Z06 corvette and wanted to paint it a metallic blue. so far i just painted it with some primer but i still need to do some work to get it mounted onto the chassis. I also wanted to know where could i get the xmod spacers instead of making my own.

Jon

(will post pics when the car arrives at my home. was shipped from florida.)

o i finally got the paint its going to be an electric blue should come out nice. I have to work on the body before i paint this time. Might take me longer because i sprained my thumb so it kinda sucks that i have to wait for it to heal before i can finish my project off wll take pictues of what i have so far.

ok here is an update on what i did to the hood of the car to make sure it was what i wanted it to become. I used a grey as a primer and then used Dupicolor electron blue, since i used a grey primer it came out as a darker color. the pictures are before the 2nd coat of paint and clear coat will have updates soon. Enjoy:
