92 Ebony .. just back from ..

.. the paint shop.

So far, all I can say is WOW !

(Original) paint was more or less OK before. I had the whole thing painted.

Now, the outside is clean, the engine is clean & has the ECUtune s1v4, the underside is clean, the interior is clean, the car's 3rd tranny has new valve body and the ECUtune TCU, and I am awaiting the QC Shift Kit.

Left to do: new upgraded rotors, ss brake lines, new 17" wheels and new door and rear speakers.

Soon to be a completely happy camper.

No doubt then something will break ! ;-)

Must... have... pics! As per Captain Kirk.
Something will break soon, such is the nature of the beast.
ECUtune valve body? It shouldn't need the QC kit.

No, not the ECUtune valve body .. just a re-conditioning of the existing valve body. "New" was a bit of an exaggeration.

Pics will come after the first waxing, next weekend.

I had a fender painted on an Audi last month and I was told 30 days. You can take picks before and after the wax!!
