update on project celica

***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.























Car is getting block sanded tomorrow and the interior panels are getting painted tomorrow as well.

also in other news, the car just picked up another sponsorship, toyo tires. And if you plan on going to Nopi Nationals in GA later this year, be sure to come to the toyo tires booth as the car will be in their booth.

Wow, can't wait to see it completed


PS: It's great to finally click on a "project Celica" thread to find out it's not a G35 coupe

It is going silver. Its getting a porsche silver sprayed and then a candy blue lightly sprayed over that, so itll look silver but have a blue shine in certain lights.
