Hey guys, sorry i havent been around lately. Haven't had internet at the house for a few months, so i get on at work when i can. Hope you guys haven't missed me too much haha

well just to give you guys an update, last weekend i drove across state in the car (because it was supposed to be nice), but got caught in a snowstorm and the wonderful Oregon DOT threw crushed red rock all over the roads. To make a long story short, both sides of the car got blasted with nicks and chips and so the entire car needs to be resprayed.

With that said, i've taken this opportunity to change some things on the car

things to be done:
*shave upper and lower door moldings
*Replace current Projektzwo sideskirts with OE S4 sides
*Pull front and rear fenders-subtle widebody
*space wheels out

and the big one...*respray Porsche Aqua Blue Metallic

here are a few pictures of what i've done so far (crappy cell phone pics)

removed front bumper and sideskirts


pulled door trim off this morning


and here is an idea of how the color will look



and in direct sunlight

 

that will look sick when its done! how are u planning to plug those holes from the door trim?

 

i'm not sure yet which method i'm going to use. i could either weld the holes up or you a special body tape on the backside with filler. both are proven methods, so i'm not sure which way i'm gonna attack it yet.

 

that sux about the scratches. i can't wait to see the result though. and ya the weather channel is crap lol. is your rear wheel in that pic already spaced out?

 

no, the rear wheel is spaced out the same as is has been for a while. i've been running 6mm spacers all around for about a year now. gonna have to go bigger though with the pulled fenders

 

How much of your fenders are you pulling out?

Glad you're back on here.

 

gonna roll the lips out, so i should gain about an inch on each corner.

 

great color choice!

 

new updates!

worked on the car for a few hours this morning, heres the progress as of now.

removed the lower trim and grinded down the pegs


then sanded around the trim holes to get ready for welding on saturday


began sanding the doors



tonight i'm gonna do some more sanding, as well as probably begin laying some filler on the bottoms of the doors to smooth out where the pegs used to be

 

Awesome! Looking forward to seeing the end result.

I'm more of a Cobalt Blue Metallic person. Then again.. it's hard to tell the difference from Aqua.
