5 GT Turbo Renault 5 GT Turbo Phase 1 Full restoration from Slovenia

[Gianni_D]

Today I painted all of the front subframe parts with Mipa 2K black.

Looking back, when I repainted the rear subframe I didn't use 2k paint. Should I redo it or will the zinc primer + normal metal black paint be enough?

Turned out well and looks super clean and shiny

Historically I have powdered my rear beam on the old 5. If off the car might be worth it but some stone chip/guard might be easier now

Just a taste of what's to come.

Started with the assembly of the front subframe.
New bushings, steering rack boots and grease, ball joints. Looks really nice in person.

I'm quite satisfied, yet there are some paint chips I need to touch-up as I dropped some bolts on the subframe by accident Never-ending project. I'll probably just mix some 2K paint and touch it up with a small brush or similar. Hope the paint will bond together as normal since it will not be sprayed.
