Beginning painting

We testfitted the skirts and bumpers when it was light outside. The Project Zwo front bumper looks too skinny, it might fit well with the early rear bumper, but with the big bumper it just looks wrong. The current vision is to put the kin spoiler of the project zwo to a stock big bumpers.

The filling and sanding is starting to be on a good stage, so we started to partially paint the car. The temperature was +3 degrees C, so it was a quite good weather for painting. But the drying took ages... At this stage we painted the door openings, fenders, body seams and the interior around the window openings. The preliminary paint will be applied in our garage, and the surface will be sanded smooth. The final paint layer will be applied in a paint shop.

Testfitting the rear bumper and the rear grille. The final version of the grille will be narrowed to fit between the lights

The front bumper looks too small...
