My Vivid Yellow 2002 P5
Hi all
Here is a quick shot of my 2002 VY P5. I am pretty much done the detailing and the only thing left is some stuff in the engine compartment. I'm thinking of painting the valve cover red after seeing that tread. I am also planning on lowering with some springs in the future.
I am also trying to finish off my web page so that I can post the rest of the pics and not have to swamp the board.
Photo was just taken this past weekend, Sept. 7, 2002, in Red Deer Alberta following the Regional meet.

Bummer though, got some paint chips already probably from some rocks. I'll fix them soon.

Actually, when I sprayed the top grill, I saw that the reds did not match so I stripped the paint. Got the proper stripper, again for plastic bumpers, and brushed off the old paint using a brass barbque brush. I also used a brass gril brush for the holes in the grill. Took about 5 hours to clean off the old paint.
I think the end result looks great and it sure is a head turner.

Looks really nice, but I think I would lose the pinstripes. They kinda detract from the otherwise clean look.
