Last set......Last one is started to unmask.  The black on the diffuser is not painted yet......its the black primer....but looks good and gets you an idea of what it will look like.

OK....So I know alot of you guys have been waiting to see my color on my car.   I'm not coming out with it yet....but here's a heck of a teaser set of pics.   Painted Lime,  but alot of other colors and things to do before I show her off again in full view.  Let your imagination fill in the rest.......Hope you enjoy.

Masked off and ready to seal. Used DuPont prime and seal epoxy, tinted yellow, helped hide the black a little better.

     
Looks great!

Been really busy with this project. Cant wait to show it when all the painting is complete. But.....I promised some teaser pics!!!! Heres a few more pics of when I had it in for the painting of the base color. These pics were getting it ready to mask off for sealer. My daughter helped me alot throughout the whole process.

Man, That DOES look good. Ugh, Tax time come soon!!! I need to order my kit. hahaha. Bro you ahve been doing some great work here. Making me consider a MR2 donor, hehehe.

Thanks bro,  glad to be a part of anyone's inspiration.   Only thing I'll say about the doner, Fiero, MR2 or other......None will make the job easier or harder.  Its a lot of work and long days and nights trying to figure things out.  Lots of guys working Fiero re-bodies......so.....lots of help and advice.   Not so many MR2 builds in the states.....so help and advice is sometimes limited.  Not to discourage in any way.....just saying.
