Thanks. The windows are getting tinted soon...now that AC kinda works. LOL Too hot to drive for 3-4 days with no AC and windows up.

Probably won't lower it though. I like the ride.

Nice! I was thinking about bringing the blue inside. I did this with my Red 07 Avalanche (seen here)

I got some black/blue seat covers instead for now. Not sure how much more I'm going to do to the car. Already have about $3300 invested (including price of car).

I like it alot!

I have spent a dump load on this car. I think about 10000, maybe more including what I paid for the actual car and I'm not even close to what I really want to do with it.
But I also want to get it re-painted and will probably get a little creative and alter body a little. I want to paint everything possible on the car, like trim and other little details. Maybe then I'll get rid of the bra.
but again, this is my toy that I drive in good weather, to others their SHOs are DD.

and you still didnt take the tails and such off? or the fender emblems??

 

[93_SHO_FL]

Nope. Didn't see the need to. It came out good for $1200 this time. He is going to wet sand and buff a few spots in a few weeks. Like I said earlier, I'm not spending $5000 on an $850 car for a paint job. I actually wasn't going to spend over $1000 on paint. This is a temp car for me. I'm not a die hard SHO fanatic, just like the cars a little.

love the color..car looks good,happy to hear you got this all resolved

 

[93_SHO_FL]

Should be having it sanded and buffed soon. Still looks pretty good. I had to wax it Sunday though. Love Bugs are KILLERS!!!

 

[93_SHO_FL]

Still never color sanded and buffed it. About 1 month after it got repainted, this happened...

So I figured I'd do that when I fix the bumper.

He got rearended...

Correct. At 45mph (I was stopped)
Haven't even bothered fixing it yet.

Is the bumper the only thing in need of replacing? Looks like you might have gotten lucky as far as crashes go.

Yeah, my exhaust is a little tweaked and the spare tire well got dented a little. Probably going to heat up bumper cover and straighten it and reshoot it. Been teaching myself how to paint. Doing pretty well so far.

That's not bad at all. Good luck with the fix!
