I came home to grab my other mask, when I get back to school they'll be getting sprayed with Reflex Silver.

Maybe I should know this already, but do you work at a body shop or run your own business or ? If I wanted to get a part or car resprayed, if that something you could/would do?

He is in school right now.

But does incredible work, I have watched a few of his build/restore threads.

Awww shucks

My first full restoration is for sale in the classifieds right now. Saige's e30. Someone buy it so it doesn't wind up with some snotty kid who'll abuse it

[Sucka612]

Looks like its coming along nicely, looking to paint any more parts in the future?

[Die Frau]

Oh snap.... lookin' good! Cannot wait!

[John2.0T]

Very nice work!

Looking forward to seeing them on your car, Pete!

[Die Frau]

yeah, me too! Eric, keep 'em coming!

[silver saloon]

how much would you want to paint a pair of side skirts? id be interested once i order mine..

[EWAustin]

I'll have a better Idea of exactly how much a pair of side skirts will cost after I'm done with these. Pete was nice enough to be my guinea pig

Unfortunately I didn't get the paint sprayed today, but that'll be first thing in the AM. Depending on how much wet-sanding they need I might even be able to deliver them this weekend.

I did get the paint mixed up though, and I gotta say, reflex silver is an interesting color.
156.6 parts Coarse Aluminum
88.6 parts Medium Aluminum
4 parts Flattening
2 parts Weak White
.5 parts Blue
.2 parts Black
.2 parts Violet

I've got one more picture from today, I'll get that up here in a minute.

[Die Frau]

I knew I saw Violet in the paint...

[silver saloon]

alright, well let me know..

[John2.0T]

Eric - If you want to paint a few pieces for me this spring I have a few things that will need to be painted .

[EWAustin]

Here's a quick teaser pic from my cell phone.


Paint is on, Clear is on, I just have to let the clear coat cure overnight and on Monday there's one tiny little sag I have to sand out. So at this point I'm planning on delivering them Monday afternoon-evening. Pretty good turn-around if I do say so myself
