Car was just painted......

[ktm]

I had some holes filled (mirror and spoiler related), rust on the lower fender rockers repaired, rear deck below the hatch replaced (some minor rust) and a few other issues taken car of. New front windshield without the blue stripe, etc., etc. I pick up my rear bumper from the chrome shop later this week. It needed minor straightening and a rechrome, but I am too excited to wait to post the pics. The color is Audi Solar Orange. It is a solid color and I went single-stage. I want to be able to repair scratches, chips, etc. myself with a bit of touch up and sanding/polishing. Yes, the Mazda 5 is MY daily driver........

Looks really good! Mind me asking what it set you back? We should get together sometime and swap Z stories over a cup of coffee or something. Im just in Ventura. Could meet halfway....

The paint and new windshield (installed) was $3300. He did not blow the car apart and put it back together. The car was relatively straight to begin with and he just touched up some minor waves and dents. I told him it was a street car, a driver, and opted not to go crazy with the body work. I am rather pleased. The paint is not perfect and could use a good color sand, but all in all I am very, VERY happy.

That's what I was thinking Blue. I like those wheels too.

Nice color scheme! The black details really set off the orange!

[Kurbycar32]

The hood vents and mirrors contrast perfectly with that orange, I also love the wheels.

Do have a KTM bike to match the car? If you do you're my new hero!
