Good news. I received a message late yesterday that my car has been painted! I would have gone to see it for myself today, but I had to attend a birthday party for a 2 year old. By the time I was back to my neck of the woods the shop had closed. From the sounds of it there is some trim pieces, mirrors, etc. that remain unpainted, but at least we got the bulk of it out of the way.
Pics coming soon!!

FINALLY the RS2 is painted. The car has been lightly sanded to help the paint cure, which is why the car has a dull appearance. The entire interior of the has been painted also so there is no more red to be seen. It will be buffed to a high gloss after the car has cured. The bonnet, wings, doors and hatch will be bolted up later this week. We've still got the rocker covers, mirrors, door trim, etc to paint, but at least I'll be able to bring the car home soon and start putting her together.
More soon!

How do you buff a metallic paint? or is the blue just plain and the metallic in the first layer of clear?

Cheers for that. I'm really looking forward to getting this thing back in my garage.
