haha dont see that happenin ermmm not until the hole bodykits on ( i dont see the sence in painting the car and having to paint parts later )
Car looks nice, but what's with the colour?
The colour looks a bit uneven and faded.. Nice looking car though..
Just kidding
Wait untill its painted and it comes out in humidity blisters because the primer has water in it!Originally Posted by AirStrike
You cant leave a car sat around in primer for long periods of time as primer is porous and takes on water, once the car is painted the water cant escape out of the primer because it is sealed by the paint and will end up with big humidity blisters!
bare metal respray is the answer to thisOriginally Posted by VN Calais 5.0
after it gets a few "Holden edition" seems smoothed over, and a few parts shaved , thats why its still in primer ( i paint cars for a hobby i do know about primer sucking in water and yes its a pain in the arse )
Oh ok, fair enough then. Just didnt want you to get all that way to the finished product then it comes out in blisters. But a bare metal respray will fix that as you said.
few more pics , just done the VR/VS washer bottle conversion , gonna do the overflow bottle conversion ( bottle is from a 32 ford hotrod) umm it basicly looks like a chrome cylinder lol , but yeh got the Group A grill on ready for the front bar to go on soon.....

put there because i wanted it there, and bonnet closes's fine ( looks like it the washer bottle sits high in them pics) but only sits roughly 4 - 5mm past the radiator suport thingy
Hmmm I dont like where that washer bottle is..I dont understand the point and it looks out of place.Originally Posted by spacattack
What colour is the car going to be painted man?
washer bottle is there because it gets it out of the way, im in the process of cleaning up the engine bay ( hide wiring , get rid of nasty ass washer/over flow combo on shockie tower) with replacment motor on the way, colour is midnight purple with bllue pearl
should turn out good, u gonna have 2 post pics up when u have dun the painting
