I am not sure if this is the best section for this post but if not the mods can move it.
I have been detailing cars since I got my learners and have always used the money for my addiction, Racing! I started auto crossing when I got my learners and moved up to high performance driving the next season on full road courses. I have been making my way up the driving education levels and plan on going for my road racing license this season. I have built up a 1989 BMW 325i for Nasa's spece30 class and finally got some extra money to paint the car. A good friend of mine and myself sanded and painted the car in a weekend in his garage and without further rambling here are a few pictures of the process.
Here is the car before at VIR:
Yes I know a chevy trailer, but you can't complain when you get to borrow a trailer whenever you want.
After sanding:
Here is a picture of the paint bay, there is a three car garage connected to the bay.
Taping off the car:
Sealant is sprayed:
This was the first time I have EVER sprayed a car, not to bad huh
Could you tell there was a sunroof?
The red goes on:
After letting the paint cure sitting in the paint bay
Sitting out side in the dark:
Still a little more to do putting the decals and such but almost there:
And sitting in front of the daily driver her sister:
Thanks for looking.
