| C5 Repaint - Progress pics |
Subject: C5 Repaint - Progress pics by NelsonV on 2012/8/8 19:55:38 I thought I'd share and hope you enjoy... I had small a collision in the C5 a few weeks ago. It was at less than 20mph and no one was hurt. But since the insurance company was paying to redo the front clip and had it disassembled, I decided to go ahead and have the rest of the car disassembled and repainted since it was already suffering from two less-than-primo paint jobs. My car was orignally black (back when I was the second owner). Then it was a gaudy metallic silver; then it was white. This time around I am going with a Lexus pearl white...done right! (i.e. strip, prime, seal, base coat, pearl, clear coat, color sand) This guy got in my way:  Damage to my car:  Disassembly:   Ensuring frame is not tweaked:  Jambs:      Waterfall:  A few parts are back-ordered. If they arrive this week, hopefully, next week will be re-assembly and final paint. I'll post more pics as progress continues. Cheers- NelsonV  |
