Default 2 Month Wait Finally Over!

So after a 2 month wait I finally finished my s2k's paintjob. I added a mugen rep hardtop, new oem bumper, lip, spoiler. Also added JS2K keyhole covers and shaved all the emblems off. I also flared my front fenders and rolled/pulled the rears a bit. Awaiting for a wheel setup either (advan rs,enkei nt03s, or rpf1s) Everything was removed for this paintjob since i'm planning to keep my S for a long time. Interior panels, bumpers, fenders, doors, hood an d trunk were removed. I've always wanted a clean oem look with nothing crazy and I think I did a pretty good job. Lmk what you guys think? Thanks
Sorry for the Iphone pics its all i got at the moment. Proper shoot coming soon!
All work was done by a friend and myself












Sorry for so many

Is it moon rock? needs better pictures, only one that has good color is with the window taped in. Is the top painted as well? Looks good from what you've posted, but the pics aren't doing your work justice! Should be just a touch lower with the fender mods IMO. I don't care much for totally slammed cars but your fenders would fit over those wheels nicely. AP2 wheels are classy.

Its actually Ferrari Grigio which is the same as member ss04 car (my inspiration) Moonrock was actually my first color choice. The top is painted with carbon fiber sides and I know that I need a shoot soon. I actually did the all the work to the fenders now that its was getting painted bc I didnt want to mess with them after. Im planning to go 17x9 advan rs or rpf1s with 255 tires all around. Dont know which offset yet since I want too keep my car clean and functional. I love my ap2 wheels as well!

Not quite! I don't have the amuse front bumper and I kept my Oem rear bumper as well. I do not have the clean subtle mods that ss04 has. His is perfection and mine is still a work in progress (mod wise)

Looks good! You'll actually be my twin (or triplet w/ss04) here pretty soon with the color. Should be out of the shop in a couple of weeks. Stay tuned. Good job doing own paint!

Thanks guys!
My friend and I did all the work from bodywork to paint. Then once all the prep work was done we rented two booth's at a local shop. The car was sprayed on Saturday and left overnight for Sunday pickup.
