I finally got on the new paint last weekend.

It looks just WOUNDERFUL! it's an audi greenbase that we mixed with some gold, so int the sun does it change from green to gold. SO NICE!!!

 

I'm just waiting to get the interior done aswell so that i can get the car started and get it ready for the road.

 

pictures of the paint:

The interior is another chapter, i can say that it will stick out from the ordinary cars.

The interior will look something like this.

in the trunk there will be a new floor that covers the Audiobahn amp (with a hole cut up so that you can see it, and also some lightning on it)

I will also cut up a hole in the back of the subwoofer box and put some lightning there so that you can se the 15" Audiobahn Subwoofer work =)

it's not finnished in the trunk, but i haven't got a more recent updated picture of it, more comes tomorrow =)

 

Where the backseat one was i've replaced it (hence you could hardly ride there anyway) with a new subwoofer box, i've build covers to make a smooth brake between the box and the rest of the interior (based on the original covers)

the subwooferbox will be painted in the cars new paint and the covers will be covered with black vinyl.

 

the armrest between the seats has been changed/modified to connect to the subwooferbox and the lower part of it will also be painted in the cars new pain, while the lid will be covered with black vinyl.

the painjob costed about 750$us, 2-3 coats of paint and the same with the clearcoat.

this year i will finally put on the covers for the headlights that i bought almost 2 years ago... the this winter i will probably change the headlight to lights from a nissan S15 (much nicer!) and also so will i build me some diod rearlights. =)

Nice colour (yep that is the way we spell it down under). My Zed was green - going to keep it that way. I have a set of gold mags for her and I am thinking of green with a gold metallic. I just love the colour of yours any more info on the paint spec? 4 parts 1 part? PM if you like.
