After 5+ years of fun the Supra finally goes to Paint; at least phase I, which is the Trim Out. The paint looks great and "Paint Master", John Telford, did a great job as I knew he would. Now it's time to try and figure out where all those parts are at and, more importantly, where they go. After it is reassembled we'll go back to the paint booth to finish it off.

A few pics below.

Thanks for the nice replies. The color is 2009 BMW A79. Sedonarat Red w/Pearl. It's more like Cherry Wine. When compared to red it looks orange but when compared to orange it looks red. In my opinion it is more burgundy with a hint of orange. My goal was to get in the Terra Cotta range but a little more red with Pearl. It took forever to pick the exact color with family, friends, and neighbors all providing input and opinions. I am happy with the choice.

Sooo jealous I wish I had the money and time to strip the car down and get it re-painted.


Looks nice!
