I am waiting on a few parts before I can paint my gt-four project so I decided to paint a project that kinda has been neglected. I bought this 1994 st for 700 and planned on doing a custom 4age with a trd supercharger setup, as well as removing the bodykit and getting it back to a stock look. Since the gt-four has taken up so much of my time it's just been sitting outside. However since I had the free time I thought it would be great to paint this car as a little practice before I paint the gt-four. The paint is a bench mix of viper red and renaissance red with a little metallic flake.

for your gt4 don't prep the car the way you did it here. Take out your handles, door glass, mudshields, all lights, hood, itll make it look cleaner. Im sure you didn't do the door jams and inside panels. other than that looks good from the pictures.

Good prepping allows for good results.


I hate you, and yes I did paint the door jams
