Message	Okay, final saved up for the paint job.  · I'm going on year 2 of ownership. 1991 NA, 83K Miles. In year 1, I did the following: Powertrix Tension Rods/Camber Arms, Plugs, Radiator, Fuel Filter/Hoses/Regulator/Dampener, new AC, Unorthodox Pulley Set, Brembo Rotors/Hawk HPS Pads, Gram Light Wheels, JDM Tail Lights, Exhaust. Whew...., Cha-Ching...., Bend Over... Time to Paint  · Found a good painter in Denver: Porter Auto Body. He needed bumpers, mirrors, tail lights, etc off the car. I did this myself to save $500, and for the experience.  · A couple of pics of the stripped car (going wingless-bought the hatch last year from a donor):  · Transporting to Porter Auto Body:  · Wayne chemically stripped the hood:  · Bondo skim coat to cover years of small dings: He's going to prep it nice, 2-3 coats of Nissan AH3 (Cherry Red), 3 coats of clear, and wet sand to a high-gloss finish. Should take about 3 weeks. I'm planning on posting more pictures next week. Trailboss
