What color are you painting it? I would stay away from black unless you have a garage to park it in. It gets soooooooo dirty and dusty.
I thought you ware doing the 92 spoiler as well?
Anyway good luck and remember a paint job is 90% prep.

not planning on painting it for a while. just gettin it in primer and getting everything nice and straight. i plan on doing the high rise spoiler when i get money to get a hood at the same time so probly right before i get a paint job i will do that. im deciding between a few colors but it will most likely be gunmetal. i saw a t/a that color and fell in love.

Hey it's coming along real nicely Matt!


Only thing I'd have to say you make sure you do, is go with grid Z28 tail lights!

That would look good for sure. Maybe even tint them with some black paint and clear coat mixed?
