Finally Painted!!!!! - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Hello all. I have been working on my car for 7 months now, and I have finally got it painted

(thanks to the design help of Brunogadget)

7 Months you ask? Well, this car has been a clusterfunk since I first started working on it and every single thing that I have ordered has been wrong or did not fit. But, I got it handled now and it should start to come together.

I still have Asanti 154's going on and we also have to paint the mirrors, pinstripe the hood, and put on the rest of my body kit, which is a full carbon VIS kit.

I have put just a few photos here of the paint job and I will be posting more when we get the rest of the parts on this week. I will also be starting a thread on the whole build with tons of pics in about 2 weeks. That will include pics of all the body work, install pics of the stage 5 PFADT road racing suspension package, and whatever else I find that I think you guys might want to see.

You guys will notice that the gills are shaved as well as the door handles. I will attach a link to a video of how my doors work when I do the full build thread. I hope you guys like.

Usually I hate everything carbon fiber but, that hood is simply badass. The striping on the side is killer too. Awesome job so far man. I really like it

Thanks. I figured I either wanted to shave them or make them functional. It made sense to shave with the handles gone.

Love the look..shaved doors are great till your remote goes bad or you leave the keys in the car and close the door, be careful getting gas. Its a bitch looking in and seeing the keys in the ignition. You have to access my trunk to get the remote switch..no key means no trunk unlocked....Car looks great so far

We actually have a emergency switch set up under the car. It is basicly 2 battery terminals that I can hook up a battery to and the doors will open automatically. I am sure I will do it at least a few times before I remember.
