I would never have thought to paint a Notch Pearl white, but it looks fantastic.
Congrats and good luck with the assembly.

Thanks! The colour is actually "brilliant white" I saw it on a motorbike, tested it on a 5 X 5 piece of sheet metal, and was very nervous to see how it would look on a larger surface. Fortunately it worked! The pearl could be seen as "coarse" and to much glitter, but I love it!

Sambas in South Africa are good for only 2 things: showing off and sunburn.

See you have a set of "Coil overs" on the back shocks, may I ask if you bought them, and where, or where they on the car when you got it.
