Default 83' 928 in Porsche Lime Green, first pic's after paint

Here are the fist pictures after bringing the car home from paint. This car was the real ugly light brown and now is painted in 1975 Porsche lime green. The color is awesome. I will keep posting pic's as I reassemble the car.

Would not have been my first choice, but wow does that look awesome!!!

Perfect example that it's hard to tell (at least for me) how cool some cars will look until you actually see it.

Love it! Never would have thought about that color. Are you going to bring it to SITM?

It looks awesome on that OB; way better than I could imagine. I think it might not look as as good on an S4, though. I think the more angular details might not work with it.

That's just me, though, and I didn't know it would look this good on an OB.

I'd love to see this car with tinted windows, smoked taillights and markers.

Cool!
Can't wait to see pics of the car complete and in sunlight.

PS. Don't tell Jim Bailey what color your car was.

That is badass. What color was the car before the repaint?

I'd like to see one in Viper green. Maybe someone could try that too.
