What did you do to your Subaru today?

**eekay** · 07-26-2012

Wow. This thread sure came back to life...

As far as today, my paint gun failed during priming (Sorry Jac and Brok. I know you've read this like 9 times elsewhere...) I got a new gun and will continue tomorrow. Pictures coming soon! Shimmerin' Galaxy Grey with holographic gold flake in the clear coat.

They guys/girls at the Lima store have access to it just like I do. Its with our salvage company through second source ordering. They just have to do the work to order it. Lol. All our stores have access to Advance Salvage

I got some spraypaint that is an exact match for PSM and I'm thinking of painting my side mirrors body color today

EDIT: I installed my SPT intake since my Mishimoto coupler came. I can actually hear my turbo spool now! The fozzie is starting to sound like a Subie now

If you plan on rattle-canning your mirrors, make sure you lightly sand them first, then primer them, wet-sand them and finish painting. Nothing is worse than having to stare at a blemished paint job every time you look to see who is next to/behind you... Trust me.

Hey no problem man. Well they may be lazy but I can saya lot of the part timers know nothing about second source orders but someone in a management position like me should know. If they had a checkered collar on their shirt they should have known lol.

Oh, I know. I'm no stranger to rattle canning parts
