Default update on project

***This is not the final paint job*** The car was fully painted in a test paint job so that the shop can see if there are any more things possibly needing to be done to the body of the car before they spray the expensive porsche paint onto the car. They do this for cars like mine that have had extensive body work so that they can see if any welds show through the paint or any waviness from metals with the paint, etc. Tomorrow this will all be block sanded off and then the porsche silver paint and blue candy gets sprayed on either friday or monday.
