Yes same as that car. I watched that video many times while making my decision.

Epic! Can't wait to see the final results, and I have to say your color choice is perfect.

I came across a 72T. It was an Aubergene car.
It is now converted to RS and is white.

Looking at this photo of this RS maid me wonder if it would be worth it to paint the 72' back to original color as it looks really nice!

Qué Bonito. Just love all the chrome or lack thereof on the front and how they still brought the Light Lens out further.

I am very surprised they are using a twill weave carbon if it's going to be painted. I hope they are putting like 15 coats of paint or something crazy excessive like that on these cars otherwise you'll see the weave through the paint. Especially overtime from buffing and sanding unless again they put huge amounts of clear.

This is what koenigsegg does because they encounter this very same problem. They use no weave carbon if paint is going on top. But they still put tons of paint and clear on their cars regardless.

This is Aria.... No weave can be seen through the paint.
