I've resprayed my 300 :)

Hi all,

As some might be aware last November I left work to find someone had driven into my 300. Just damage to wing, front bumper, bumper bar, fog light etc.

Anyway fast forward to last week and I finally had the money to get my 300 fixed up. I did all the prep work myself and left the gun work to professionals. Firstly I did the bumper/wing so I could drive it to the bodyshop. I planned to remove all the stone chipping, then whilst I did that I removed the body line and thought it looked better without. Next thing I knew we were respraying the whole thing apart from roof/tailgate lol :)

Here are a few pics

Russ looking great! This has to be one of my favourite colours on a Z32.

Did the driver report the incident or did they drive off? :(

Glad it's motivated you in doing more work on her.

I must admit, it does make the wheels look 'small' having done the rest of the car. You need bigger shoes buddy! Top job though, and can't wait to see that sound system (finally) going in.

I hope the driver left his details, that would be vicious, leaving work and coming back to a nasty surprise like that. Fair play though, the car looks quality after the re-spray, gleaming and new!

She looks stunning. The silver really suits the Z32.:thumbs: They're still a sexy car 20 years later. :driving:
