they actually used gray primer. A friend of mine ended up with purple primer on his car at another shop
LOL. HAHA. on another forum everyone was asking about the color and someone said pink. So I had my girl photoshop it pink for me LOL. I didn't visit my car today. I'm gonna go check it out tomorrow hopefully, and I will grab some pics if I can.

I didn't get to snap any pics today. But the whole car is fully assembled, and polished out and what not. And overall it looks great. What a transition with the molding of the kit and the shaving of the door moldings, and with the new paint, it looks like a different car. But I found 2 drips in the clear coat that have to be removed before I take the car home. So I should have it back on Monday or Tuesday.

got the car back last night. And it looks great. On the ride home I had a blowout though. :cry: It was on my 15s so not that bad. Unfortunately I was unable to jack up my car with the stock jack, and I can't fit my donut on the front wheel cause of my upgraded calipers. I had to have a friend come out with a hydrolic racing jack for me and I was able to take a wheel off his car, and he used his donut, and I then gave it back when I got back to my house. I had my father bring me to the shop so he was following me when I had the blowout. My father is a retired police officer, and he has his personal car with lights and sirens in it. he provided us with saftey behind my car and kept all his lights flashing. Apparently someone driving passed called 911 cause of the scene, and they assumed that my father was giving us a hard time or something. With the way people are now using lights and sirens to pull people over and rob them. Anyways. A marked police truck and an unmarked police car show up, 5 officers come out, 2 with guns drawn around my fathers car. My father explained what was going on. The officers came up to me and asked what was going on. I explained to them. And I thought last night was going to be quiet. Just pick up my car and bring it home. And then to my girlfriends house for dinner. :lol:
I currently have 3 15s and 1 18 on my car. I will take pics prolly over the weekend, once I have matching wheels on the car.

Holy crap man. A blowout and cops, what a good 24hrs! I bet that was kind of intimidating having a bunch of cops pull up on you and your dad, lol.

Man, you're killing me posting without pics!! I kid bro, but hurry up with these pics
