quite excited to see the end result...keep up that good work!

 

Great choice of color for your project! Looking forward to seeing the finished car soon.

 

But why didn't you prime the whole car? Why only the new body panels?

 

Just got these pictures from DTM Auto Body of the Project Mercedes SL in the paint booth. After long discussion with Brian Fox of Fox Marketing we both decided to paint the car BASF Glasurit Liquid Metal. The paint also goes by the name of Mercedes Design Titanium Alubeam. It is a very rare color used by Mercedes for the F800 Concept , as well as a $10,000 paint option on the NEW Mercedes SLS. Exactly 1 week before the SL is picked up by the transport company and sent to its final destination of Las Vegas for SEMA 2010. Next week will equal a few sleepless nights getting the final details tied up.

 

wow that shop does great work

 

Alubeam is not an easy color to paint. skill needed. can't wait to see it up close @ SEMA!

 

Amazing what a little paint can do to a body, looks amazing and totally right color for this. Good luck in the final stage!

 

DANM, That colour fits that car perfectly. the final result will be wit out a doubt breath taking.

 

That color is PERFECT! Now I really can't wait to see this car at SEMA this year.
