Alright guys, I need a little bit of help. Like I said before I'm planning on getting a 240sx, and going with the SR swap. I have some questions though. Since the car is going to be somewhat old and I'm sure rusted, I'm going to put a bodykit on and am planning on having the ENTIRE car painted... engine bay, trunk, doorjams and all. The problem is I think you need to have the engine removed when you paint the engine bay (Since I'm sure that it'll have rust in it). I figured that I could do this when I remove the KA engine.... but I don't really know. I mean am I going to have to tow it to the paint place and let them push it around? What do you guys think? Help me out here guys, lol. Thx

Brad

have it towed there after the engine is out and its easy to push around a car.. dont worry about them doing that.. im sure they have before

Hmmm so you don't think they'd be mad.... I dunno I just wanted to make sure I wouldent look like an idiot to ask them to repaint the whole thing, like the door jams, trunk and engine area....

...I don't think it's a rare occurence for people to want those parts painted

Alright cool, because I think this is a good idea since the car might have some rust damage. Also some more questions... Do you guys think that the paint shop is gonna be a bodyshop also, like they can put my kit on, and if so is it gonna cost more for me to have it molded and to have them bondo rust sports and/or holes? Sorry for the stupid posts but I need to be sure because there is almost NO paintshops in Orlando.... Oh yeah and if you guys know of any feel free to help me out with names and numbers. Whoa whoa one last thing, at the end of June yall are invited for a little 7th gen BBQ over at my place, stay tuned for details.
