Part 1: The strip down

Except for the drivers seat and dashboard, practically all of the interior is stripped out to be resurfaced and to facilitate the bodywork and spraying

PART 3: Paintwork

The magic begins! They put down a Honda black pearl paint for the top of the car, right after which we applied the graphic design on the hood. Then came the bright red pearl on the bottom half of the car and clear all over.

i accept everybody's opinions, good [grin] or bad :@ but just know i cant make any changes to it. it is what it is and no MONEY came out of MY pocket do it! so if a sponsor is going to pay you a lump some of money to to set up your car that you couldn't afford to do you self , boss all opinions can take a back burner! don't get me wrong RED was not my last or first choice but money talks and B,S, walks ( i takin' de' money wee!!! :D ) red it is! wouldn't you? and then to go online and show you how we did all this for all of D/ca and the rest of the Caribbean SPEED man could see ! that's a step know one would have the balls to do! always trying to keep things top secret and so on (me no frade) 8) who NEXT??

well it would have looked better in all red or all black.. or a better 2 tone without that hood thing... the hood thing kills in imo and how the black abrupty stops...
