Re: My 89 RS pretty much done with the paint

I have to repaint the parts that were black before the headlight pockets and hood, they are a different black, but for now i will live with it.

Re: My 89 RS pretty much done with the paint

So this isnt the 3rd gen you've always had huh? I just rejoined this site after 6 years w/o a third gen but I remember you had a nice 89 before too. Either way, still looks good. Did you clear the car, the paint looks a little flat, but could be the pictures. If not, clearcoating the car and wetsanding would make the car.

Re: My 89 RS pretty much done with the paint

LOL, yea, this is the T top 89, my hart top is the one i have had a long time.

No clear, the black on the hood is gloss, so i am going to re do it, But the green is hunter green and not meant to be shiny. I am going to re do the whole thing eventually, i just wanted ti dto look better than it was.

I have 4 third gens, well 5.
