Glitter group buy?

I can get glitter in little tubes for $1.50 each, if we pay cash maybe abit cheaper.

Spray adhesive I think is about $7.00 per can. Now if we get about 10 orders we can get them for maybe $5.00 each.

All we need now is a Spray Booth or someone's garage :ghost:

:jk: :jk:

yes its called prizmatek and I have seen it on a black honda civic Spew how ugly. Personally i think it looks like shit and it should stay off anything other than skiboats and hotrods.

Just my 2 cents!!!!

Also I think that either way be it a re-spray or a prizmatek job If its done right and a decent quality job u would be hard pressed to get either done for anything under about $4000 just a guess from my own experiances with colour changes and re-sprays.

Blitz can also probably shed some light on this to as he has recently had a very nice respray done.

Cheers!

You get what you pay for. The paintjob on my car took 5 weeks and was worth around $9k

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I highly rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
