Before they start sanding the body, I have requested that color sample test panels be created so I can match them to the original paint.

Well, no new progress to report as of today.
Because the shop is really busy, the possibility exists that my car may not be completed in time for Camaro5 Fest V. I will speak to the owner tomorrow to see if this is the case.

The car is finally being prepped for paint, although they still have to remove the roof antenna.
(the rear bumper cap will be removed after sanding)

After 3 days of trying, I think we finally got a good color match. It will look deeper with more clear coat.
