Since 2000, red color was my fav...... and still it is....... but I have decided to give it a try, and change it to ORANGE ..... with my bro Evo7.....

I am expecting the car will finish by Monday.. hopefully more pic will be added.........


I'm kinda excited but worried at the same time........
They are not finished yet..... need some buffing and stuff like that.......
I saw the car yesterday,,,, and it looks way much better than the pic...

Still underprogress >>>PART2<<<



Anyway, the cars are not used on daily basis, so I wanted to have a different look.


More images will be posted, and ofcourse I will be expecting some comments.

Enjoy

Omran

Did they give you any kind of discount for having 2 cars done in the same color? Looks good so far

Omran,

Is that the factory Imola Orange paint that you're using? Just curious...

Looking forward to the final pix!

Did something prompt this change (accident), or were you just restless and decided to repaint?

Dont worry bro...painters know what they are doing (usually tho anyway! haha)
Looks like they arent cutting any corners to get a mint job.... You look like you will be in for a great week when u get the car back!
Dont forget to not drive the car too much in the first 3-4 weeks so that the paint can reach full strength...i wouldnt advise waxing the car during this stage as well...
Also ask your painter about a cut and polish to get that show room shine.
Post pics when she is ready!

north9586 .Thanks . I got a great deal on it... Trust me!

Chazmo Hey, (OOUUSSSHH). It is not Imola Orange... It's LambOrange... . And lets say I am bored at that time, and didn't know what to do with the car.. So paint the hole thing orange,,,,,,,,,, not only mine, but get my bro to do it too

s2000raj COMING SOON

YoOSHi Yeah Yeah! you stole my idea in the first place.... As you did your paintjob Very secretly! .......... Humm,, about the engine, I think I will keep it the same.

KIDS2000 . I have no idea about paint job, but I can tell if it was a good one or not,,,already finished 4 paint layer coating.... , right now they are buffing the car @ 2000 sandpaper. Thanks a lot for your advice, I want to join an AutoX event after few days, then I will park my car in the shade for few months,,
