Okay I'm gonna try to post some pictures of the whole process my car is going through. For those of you that don't know, it got about 8k in hail damage and had to be repainted. I work at the body shop so I got a ton of extras thrown in at no extra cost.





I ordered a seibon hood & spoiler and also a carbon roof. We sanded down all the carbon fiber and put 3 coats of clear over it. I also removed all the 3m tape off of the roof and then panel bonded it to the car...it was a lot more flush this way and now it's permanent. We will cut and buff everything tomorrow so it'll look like glass




The wheels, door handles, emblem, and fang section are painted this cool gunmetal color.



Car should be done next week...it'll look completely different.

The car is completely torn down so all the windows and panels were already off.
