The Nismo stealth gray would look amazing, all three are great options -- I would love to see an evo conversion of this build tho that would be quite the challenge but I think you two have what it takes. goodluck !
Thank you so much for the comment.
i will give you a tip i have worked in an auto body repair shop and i know a bit so when sanding down dont apply too much pressure because you might dent in the panel that you are working on, also dont lean the sander on the edges because that can create hi/low spots on the pannels that can be spotted after the repaint sending lots od love and support from Macedonia love the work that yall are doing😁 oh and also slow and steady movements with the sander
Thank you for the tips. We need any advice you can give and really appreciate it.
I was going to say the same. Good advice. Keep the sander flat and keep it moving with gentle pressure.
Solid advice, let the sandpaper cut the panel down evenly. Keep it moving with gentle pressure!
I think the GTR grey will look good on the car 👍🏻
I agree.
So glad to see young man not afraid of work.
Thank you
Good job young man your parents should be very proud of you.
Thank you. Just Trying to make some money doing what I love.
I have a mitsubishi lancer, I’ll start fixing it after a month and I've learned a lot from you guys tysm❤️❤️❤️
That’s great. Email us pics of your progress. Would love to see.
Number 1.Great job nice to see someone work instead of video games.
No video games here.
Guys!!! You hit the mark with this one!!! You’re killing it!!! Congratulations to you both!! Hard work pays off! You’re almost to 10k subs!
It’s been insane. We’ve built a Denali, Tesla, Corvette and this $425 car is the biggest hit. Appreciate your support for sure.
I like all three colors, but I would go with the first one
Thanks.
You're welcome 😊
Stealth gray for sure
Stealth grey works for me👍
following you all the way from Egypt, this car is really popular in my country and it's worth more than 10000 dollars
Wow. That would be a huge profit if we could sell there.
this is the best car ever made, I bought one 21 years ago from agency and still working great with more tan 500.000 km
Yes it is an amazing little car. It’s rare to see many other vehicles with those amount of miles.
The Nismo GT-R stealth grey looks amazing.
Tyler stealth gray is my favorite. Tyler you are amazing and a natural behind the camera. As I said in a prior comment in another video you and your dad are an amazing team. Happy Mother’s Day to your mom!!!
I agree, the stealth gray is also my favorite and thank you so much for the positive comment!
@@SwampBoysGarage
You’re very welcome. What is your dad’s name? So if I complement both of you, I don’t always have be just saying your name alone.
GTR grey/blue. That color is sick!!!
Yes it is
Waiting next from sri lanka ❤
Glad to have your support
R35 blue looks prefect, it should be=ring out he the black wrap
Yes it would
Lovely car she’s going to shine once all painted
I hope so.
stealth gray for sure
I love the stealth gray
I like the gray on the nizmo. Great job Tyler!
Thank you!
It's is a hard choice from the 3 colors and I can't decide which one to choose because I really like all 3 of those colors and it was awesome to see your mom help you out of being a camera lady and help you out on sanding that car!🤠
Thank you. I was glad mom made her RUclips debut on Mother’s Day. She was a big help since my dad was gone.
@@SwampBoysGarage
Yea she did a great job and I hope she has a great mother's day!😊
The GTR 👍
I sometimes forget what RUclips was created for, then I realized it isn't about rich kids paying to have their Audis wrapped or super cars.
its about relatable people putting blood sweat n tears into building something up with actual skill because its their hobby not their income.
Very good comment and I agree.
Paintoption Nr. 2 would bei nice. Have a nice day.
I was waiting for this
Was just a super quick video. Not our normal video. More of a quick update.
Nismo is by far the best looking in my opinion. Doing a great job guys!
Thank you
I love seeing videos of fixing up normal, neglected cars like this! And I think you guys are being really smart about what you're doing to the car. Keep it up! You got a new subscriber here in Georgia.
Awesome!! So glad to have you
Metallic Red
Red suits Mitsubishi cars a lot
Especially Lancer
Speedokote Refinish Network is another good channel on here to watch on car painting. Easy to listen to. Option A as far as the color goes.
Awesome!! I’ll check out that channel
From India love your video..
Thank you. So glad to have you
definitely NISMO's Stealth grey is the color. good luck on the project guys.
Thank you so much
Enjoy the videos. Keep up the good work!
Thank you
bro this is sick reminds of fast and furious tokyo drift, pls get this modded its gem. Good brake pads, rims and maybe a muffler delete. love your content, stay safe and drive well!
Thank you so much for the support
Hello from Australia. Just finished watching the first four videos on the Mitzi, excellent content guys 😊Nismo Stealth Grey looks awesome 😎
That’s great and makes us happy. Appreciate your support
I like the porche blue. great job on how this is turning out! cant wait to see how it ends.
Thank you. Appreciate the input
I like that stealth gray one.
That one definitely looks good with the black hood and roof
The Nismo color has the best of both worlds. A blue with a subtle grey. I’m sure whatever you chose will be awesome though
Thank you
Awesome video from India
Thank you so much
Super fine!!! Good going!!!
Thank you sir
One thing you need to do, especially on the roof, is take it right back to bare metal and then wipe over some Deoxidine (phosphoric acid - also known in some shops as Dexoit) let this sit on the bare metal for about an hour then wash it off with water and sand again, this will kill the rust in the pore's of the metal and stop it coming back (providing you lay the etch and primer coats properly, if theres still signs of rust, sand and repeat with the acid wash (the acid wont affect your skin but wash it off to be sure you dont have a reaction to it), what your looking for is a clean rust free surface to paint, good luck!, you can also use the acid on other metal parts too to clean them up like bolts, nuts, arms etc etc, remove the aerial from the roof and get to the surface under that also.
That’s good advice and we appreciate that. That’s the kind of help we need.
Hello Tyler i,m very happy to see how hard you,re working on this Mitsubishi Lancer keep it up and yes im happy in any paint choice you make.for this cars colour.
Thank you so much. We appreciate your support
@@SwampBoysGarage its always a pleasure lad
I am absolutely in Love with this project, I am currently driving this very same model so I can identify myself with this project, as for the color scheme I think the color combination of the Hyundai Veloster would suit this car very well. Keep up the fantastic work. You guys are crushing this project.
Thank you so much and we are glad to have you following along.
@@SwampBoysGarage it is my utmost pleasure to follow along with this project, I want to see this project and want to follow to the very end, I know you guys are going to make this car look beautiful again. Keep up the excellent work.
Keep up the good work!
Thank you
Definitely a vote for the gtr grey for me!
That one is winning
I like the first color❤❤
That is my favorite I think
@@SwampBoysGarage ok bro good one... I am with you 👍👍
Man, I can see you guys being the next goonzquad type channel by this time next year. Keep that grind going,you'll be bringing in that MONEY in no time.
That comment just made our day!! We have a longs ways to go to be on their level. Hopefully one day.
You guys will find your groove and crush it. What myself and most people enjoy with the builds is humor. Consider in the near future (maybe at 10k subs) doing a second channel of bloopers and how you guys set up. Your Dad is such an outstanding addition . Y'all are doing so dang good. I'm from Shreveport so I'm bias lol but y'all will be doing a Lambo in a year!
Dude you've grown up so fast. 🎉 Proud of you two. Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much for sticking with us
Performance blue ❤
You should create long videos.i really love your videos
We will this summer. Just wanted to make a quick update video
Bro when r U going to post the video?? really waiting for your video
@@talalahmed4107 I know. I’m sorry. It’s final exams week in school then we have family vacation to go on. I hope to have a video on a highlander this weekend then when I get back from vacation we will finish the Lancer. We will have more frequent videos during the summer.
the GTR for sure it will look very nice in the car
I think so too
That was a needed update , love that project so far, can't decide which color i like the most 🤔
Thank you. Appreciate the support
1st paint color cold blooded
Absolutely
It will look more beautiful in yellow colour
I love a good yellow.
I like the Nismo color! One piece of advise: take your time to prep this car for painting, do not rush with it.
Thank you. We will. Trying to learn as we go so appreciate the advice
I like the gtr gray.
I used to work in a body shop that's what we do with heavy squats is 180 to get it prepped and ready and then 80-grit than 180 + 320 and let the sander do the work
Appreciate all the great info. We are greatful to have amazing subscribers like you that take the time to help us get better.
Ese lanser va a quedar mejor que nuevo saludos de indio california
Thank you so much!!
Glad to subscribe you guys i wish i knew your channel before my friend and my cousin have lancer more than 10 years and still kicking miles
Those are very tough cars.
Yes! Loving the direction and the great work you guys are doing! A great example for all! From across the river in Texas, blessings and respect!
Thank you sir.
Amazing video guys! Learning a lot from watching your channel. The first nissan gtr grey blue paint would be a solid pick for the lancer 👍🏼
Thank you so much
Hyundai's blue looks best on a compact car. Not too dark, not too light and I think it'll have a nice balance of contrast with the carbon fiber wrap.
That blue looks so good. It’s such a tough choice
I vote for the hyundai blue!
You can paint it in Jetstream II Metallic color that Bentley did on the Bentley Continental GTC or maybe keep it subtle and do the Brooklyn Grey that is available for BMW X3.
I like that!!!
Happy Mother’s Day to the mrs.
I’ll tell her for you!!
@@SwampBoysGarage thank you
Hey don’t forget the 8k of us when u get famous
Haha. Of course not.
I think on this car the nismo paint will look great!
nice video keep them coming please
Thank you.
Stealth Gray would be choice.
Voting for the Nismo!
Also get a painters scaffold that fits between two step ladders. Makes it so much easier doing the roof, either sanding or painting just walk back and forth
Glad you're using a mask Tyler, should have safety glasses too.
Yes sir thank you for the tip
Let’s gooooo!!!!
It's hard to choose because I like them all but the first one looks good. The sanding is alot of work, good video
Thank you
The Nismo Stealth Gray will look great on this car. If you want to lean a bit more towards a cool gray, you could also try Audi's Nardo Gray.
I love nardo gray.
The first one Stealth Gray.
Great choice
Performance blue :)
go with Miami blue the Porsche used on some of the 911's it will really pop with the carbon fiber wrap.
Stealth grey
My vote is the Nissan colour
Maxpeedingrods makes coilovers for the lancer
finally
gtr blue fire 🔥
Frozen blue
I love you🥺❤️
Appreciate that.
When you wrap the hood make sure you don't overheat the vinyl. They tend to discolor when doing so. Always leave some Xtra material as well. Worse case scenario you can cut but you can't ever add. If posible use knife less tape. For. Those hard places or deep curves.
Oh also I would recommend painting the parts either way and just wrap on top. In case you decide you don't like it. You don't have to paint parts again and have mismatch issues.
Ok. Thanks. Appreciate the tips.
Love the idea of going blue, but for your first paint job you really should stick with the factory white. It's the easiest color to shoot and you won't have mismatched jambs/trunk/engine compartment.
I'd go with the factory color and a decent clear like Nason, or if you want to save $$$, go with a much less expensive (and easier to use) single stage paint, like Ford Oxford White.
I seriously debated going back white to make it easy but we bought the car to learn how to paint then fell in love with the car so want to go all out on it.
Also... You guys are going to want to sell this project and move onto the next when it's done.
This is a stock, base model commuter car. It will sell quicker and for more if it doesn't look like something from Fast and Furious.
@@JB-mk4ry you are 100% right and that is the most practical and reasonable thing to do.
@@SwampBoysGarage Came over from Randy's channel and love that y'all are learning and listening to the constructive criticism!
That roof... Even if you get "all" the rust off, it won't be all of it with it that far gone. I'd look into a rust converter or something that chemically removes what you can't get with sanding. RUclipsrs Sarah NTuned and Legit Street Cars talk at length about this with their beetle and F150 Lightning restorations, respectively.
Idea is... Those little black pits in the metal that you can't get out with sanding are rust, and will blister the paint or spread rust under a wrap over time. Gotta convert or remove chemically.
We definitely appreciate the info. We are learning as we go and always grateful for the help.
I think you should go with the Hyundai Performance Blue, it's a color that is close to the light blue from the old Leman days of the 60's and 70's and the rally car's from Europe from the same time period, It would be a great nod to racing days of the past.
Retro themes are in style.
@@SwampBoysGarage yes they are because cool is cool no matter what year it is.
stealth grey
@swamp boys garage do the R35 blue with a carbon fibere roof
Love seeing you guys grow! Great project for sure. I'd be up for the Stealth Gray color. I think it would look sick with the wrap!
Thank you my friend. Hopefully we can collab one day
I like Gtr paint
Me too
I vote for the Hyundai blue because of the choices it is closest to Dodge's Laguna Blue.
Glad to see you tackling the roof Tyler. I'm thinking you'll need to do some bodywork on it after you use a rust stabilizer. Those rust spots look too deep to just sand out. Good luck on your prep work.
They are very deep and stained down in the metal.
Deffo the Nsmo blue, it will look nice with the cf bonnet and roof.
Thanks
ждем продолжения парень!)) Привет из России
Thank you so much. So happy to have your support from Russia.
GtR blue gray
Nismo stealth gray
Maybe drop down a few grits to hammer out sum of that tough rust spots
That’s exactly what I had to do. Had to use some 80 grit
the 1st one/ thegray blue
On the roof of that car I usually wouldn't use 80 grit then 180 and then 320 smooth it out and then where the paint peeling 180 than 320 feather it out and you're also you let the you're going a little bit fast with the sander let the sander do the work and then there's a little switch easy to turn that up a little bit to get the more air pressure you'll get the hang of it
Nismo grey all the way
