*DROOOOOOOOOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!*

dayum...nice:eek:

ouch...

yeah dude...I just got back from SEMA.
satin paint was the hottest paint of the show...almost every major company had a car painted like that.
BTW:
those rotors in that article aren't titanium....they are stainless steel covered in ceramic.

wow...so how much does a paint job like that go for? :banana:

That paint job is no more expensive than a regular one, it just has flating agent in the clear rather than full clear coat one

Great paint job! don't like the scoop though, maybe if it were painted.

so theres little to no clear coat?....whats the finish like then?

i spy an in memory of lovell/freeman sticker.

:(

anybody talking about the twin intercooled supercharger in the p-drive booth????

sjd

if anybody can find out the cost of the paint alone post it up cuz damn that is just sexy. sexier than my girlfreind leann tweeden:D

WOW... That wing is kinda nice. And it looks like it's bolted to stock mounting holes. Do you guys think they sell those somewhere?

That paint is awesome! Anyone know what kind of care would be involved with that? Wouldn't waxing it lose the effect? How about durability? Looks sooooo nice though!

:eek: thats a huge wing.. im interested in it tho heheh

Who can i contanct to learn more about that paint job? not jumpin the gun would just like to learn some more... -MaTT

if the wrx/STi's came in that silver i would've gotten silver...drool

as to the wing...is it a prodrive wing or ...?
looks pretty nice, anyone know a rough price for it?

Where's the intercooler on that sucker:confused:

looks like a FMIC...but someone said that prodrive said it wasn't....:confused:

I paint, like the guy before said it is just flat clearcoat. To get it done right it costs 4 to 5k. Although I haven't done a car in flat I have done a few bikes.

For care all you do is wash it. Waxing just builds up and either gets hazy or shiny depending on the wax.

another Prodrive car in the satin finish from SEMA....

We were talking to a rep from prodrive. The intercooler will be water to air. The front portion of it will have the water on it cooling the top mount portion of it. Hence the scoop on it is reversed to take the heat out of the engine bay.

The front mount part of it will be thin so it will fit without messing with your stock bumper beam. Here is a photo

Won't be available til late next year... better start saving! :)

NEED 5K FOR PAINTJOB!!! looks awwwesome

sounds neat...is there somewhere i can see how that works? i get the basic intercooler concept, but two linked together throws me off...that and water cooled ones i don't really understand yet...maybe someone can show me a site or explain it to me..:)

I'll check into the cost/details of satin clear. I use to paint cars, so I have some sources.....

yes thats one sexy beast, I wish my silver looked like that ,the wing is pretty slick too
