# RocketBunnyS13 : Uhhh T7Rs are just about my favorite new S-Chassis Wheel. Car is definitely in the right direction, especially the new ORL Aero. Keep going, Thanks my dude  You should drop by the garage sometime! Added 44 minutes later: Paint time!I dropped my car in for paint at my boss's new shop, he has decided to expand business by getting a bigger shop with better working conditions and brand new tools to work with. I called in a friend who's a fabricator to build me a roll cage (in order to meet the D1SL regulations) so we removed every interior part and stripped the car to the shell in order to make the work easier. Here's some shots of the car in the paint booth: 
 This time i decided, with the help of House of Kolor Japan, to go for a custom dark purple color, called Tyrian Purple and i must say that fits the car like a dream! I've had the car about 6 or 7 different colors but this one so far is taking the cake. My boss being a professional painter and a close friend he did the job for free, i just had to buy the materials (primer, paint,...) and sand down the panels so the paint sticks smooth. The materials set me back around 800V$ And here's a pic with the cage on after rolling the car out of the booth:  All there's left to do is put the SR back on, fit all the aero again and apply the livery ( RYO Japan couldn't complete my design because they are pretty much stacked up on orders for this D1SL season, but they hooked me up with a connection to Parts Shop TAKA and they rendered the new design for my car and it looks i n s a n e ) but more on that soon! Finances: 40835 - 800V$ (Paint and materials) + 960 V$ (monday update) = 40995 V$ This post was edited by ramalhinho07 (2018-07-10 16:27, ago) |
