This piece was the most important. The hatch must be installed before any of the interior can go in because the bolts for it are under the head liner. This car is much like a puzzle =) We couldn't put in any interior because the head liner wasn't installed, and we couldn't put in the head liner because the hatch wasn't painted.....well finally we will be able to get all of those things done.
Passenger side fender
Passenger door and rear spoiler. The spoiler was quite an interesting project. As you can see, we had to hang the door and the spoiler from the ceiling in order to paint the entire pieces at once. The spoiler was the most awkward =) We hung it from the ceiling with a hook, but it hung crooked. I got to be the lucky one to stand behind it and hold it. Talk about trying to be one with my car! My arm along with my clothes and my neck got painted black and then clear coated =) I had a mask on so my face was protected, but I went home quite sticky that day.
Ah, the beauty of black paint! I attempted to get it off in the shower. HA HA! Even using a toothbrush and nail polish remover (ouch) didn't work. Dad said that it would wear off in about week or so. Guess it is a good thing that it is getting cold outside because I am sure I will be wearing a lot of long sleeves =) The price you pay for beauty!
