[QUOTE="Mystic SVT, post: 864277, member: 12909"] The hardest part was making new hard lines for the rear brakes to mimic the lines on 99-04 cars. As far as shocks/springs I'm running eibach sportlines in the front with lower iso removed, urethane bushings, KYB adjustable struts. For the rear I have eibach pro-kits with the lower iso removed and 03 bilstein shocks. The pictures were edited just a little to clean them up. The color flop is exactly the same as before when it was still wearing the original paint except for now its a "stronger" flop, I don't know if that makes sense. As far as primer, you have to use a black base to shoot the mystic onto, this is per BASF. The black base also helps the paint have better coverage; when the first coat was applied it had complete coverage. You could not see any of the black base whatsoever, my painter went ahead and applied a second coat followed by a light third coat. The clear coat was applied in 3 heavy coats, I can't remember the amount of "dry time" between them. [/QUOTE]
