Thanks for noticing my work :-) To answer Homeboy981, they were perfect. No runs, drips, etc. I made sure to do many light coats and no heavy ones. So there was 6 coats of red all sprayed within 10 minutes of each other. Then 60 minutes of drying before I placed the Porsche decal. Then 4 more coats of clear within 10 minutes of each other. I'm a stickler for details and I am really happy with them. And the paint did not peal back at all when removing the tape.

I'm in the process of doing a complete body kit and paint. I've got new rims and will post pics later.

Also have them on FB.

Hi Johnny,

I assume you are asking who's doing the body and paint.

Here's the link to the posting: http://986forum.com/forums/show-tell-gallery/43078-1998-boxster-project-complete-restoration.html

The body shop is Speedzone Paint and Body in Santee, CA (San Diego)

Here they are: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Speedzone-Paint-Bodyworks/113584235371778?ref=ts&fref=ts
