She's just waiting for some love.



As you can see my JP Rep seems too flat now since last time i did it. Needs more of a curve. So i am going to redo it with BetaTech industrial automotive adhesive.



Finally got my Sausage Pak Applicator Gun from Europe after a month of waiting. Hopefully get to handle this if i get time this weekend.

Awesome thread man! I made it through page 17.

MUST.
STUDY.
NOW.

lol
I just bought a 99 GS400 in black, I need to hit up paintscratch.com for paint now. Do you order your black base from there also? What about primer and clear? Can I use the Auto Zone brands or should I get everything from the same site?

Once again, you are a genius. The car is sick!

I used automotivetouchup.com . Great OEM paints in aerosol form. Also the 2K clear would be the best durability for uv protection and such.

Pete & Thomas were the inspiration for me to get another GS in black.
