2004 lbbp salvage build

the paint was 3 stage took 9 hrs from start to finish needs allot of flash time to look good found some in in-perfections as i started to paint so i had to stop and put some putty. i took pics of all 3 stages if u can see first it was purple blue then we added the actual blue had allot of binder they call it in the blue very transparent oem is 3 coats as i put 3 coats will see tomorrow in the sun how it looks under florescent light it looks perfect so it should look better outside i have 1 gallon of clear on the car i think i went overboard

awesome!!

Looks awesome. Painting the roof?

No left roof alone it was pretty clean

Did you paint the car while it was standing where it is now? I would think that a car like the NSX should be painted in a painting booth...

too many parts to fit in a normal size booth i had to paint inside the shop actually came out cleaner than some of the shit coming out of the booth its gonna get a wet sand and buff so no difference

had to revisit this thread and check out all the pictures from this build again.

amazing.

what was the last recorded milage on this badboy?

lol i wonder how many primers are in line to pick this car up from you once completed.

54035 actual milage

Nice where are those pics

you did more than I could do.

Doubtful I'd ever buy a salvage car, especially an NSX..but if I do I want it to be from someone like you!! Great work!

im sold on puchasing one if done right. amazing what highly skilled ppl can do

WOW! Car looks amazing. I would keep it and enjoy it, especially after all that hard work.

Looks amazing. Glad to see one brought back from the dead. Nice work!

Yeah, another 04 lbbp. The pride exhaust is the shit. Every exhaust with cats sounds quiet, put test pipes on the car then post back if its too quiet lol.

I like the RSX steering wheel, so OEM looking... great job!
