Finally I got everything leaded and grinded down to the best of my abilities. I could go over some places to fill up pores, but I think it's good enough - and I'm SO tired of using lead on this sob.
And I then got some tinnfiller on it! Will probably go over it one or two passes more with filler after sanding it down to get it as good as I can before shipping the car over to the painter. Soon. Sooooon.'95 Bagged, Smoothed and ITB'd Miata 'Murderation'

Lack of updates here because of work, and because it's not really interesting to look at the same applying bondo and sanding it down process over and over. Which is exactly how it's been.
Now, I knew before applying filler-primer that it wasn't going to be perfect. But looking at it in one single shade helps find out the spots that need attention.
Definiely needs more bondo and sanding, but it's getting there.
And it is going to be a long time until I shave and smooth another enginebay....'95 Bagged, Smoothed and ITB'd Miata 'Murderation'

The process is going well just correct the small imperfections before applying the primer primer! If you applied remove to not have problems with possible bubbles in the painting, did you use sandpaper to finish the bondo? 320?

Well, not much progress except sanding and more sanding in the enginebay inbetween insane work hours. I will make an update on it soon once things are starting to get ready for paint.
BUT
I've picked up a new daily.
2002 LS430 Ultra Luxury package, with every imageineable piece of kit you'd get back in '02. Had it for soon 3 weeks, and I can't help myself...
These are on their way from Japan as we speak, 18x9 up front and 19x10 Weds LXZ's on the rear. Will order an Airlift 3P kit for it in a few weeks, and I gotta figure out how to disable the oem air system and delete all the codes it will throw.

After too much time, I have an update that's worth showing
Between work, life and travels I FINALLY got around to finish too many hours of sanding primer and filler into something I was happy with.
Got it rolling and with help of good friends, trailered to the paint shop
Same colour as the body, just with a lot more Holo flakes and added sparsely the biggest gold flakes I could find. The entire enginebay needs a wetsand and polish to be smooth, get rid of hightops and some orangepeel in the clear because of the flakes, and some runs that occured. Thankfully we applied 2 litres of clear, so we have something to work with on that end to get it as shiny as a mirror!
Now I gotta start work on the engine, make it just as nice inside and out. Funds are low, so we'll see when I get around to rebuilding it.'95 Bagged, Smoothed and ITB'd Miata 'Murderation'

Love the work youre putting in,
Peaked my interest when i saw a 1.6(Stock) in a 95, did some digging and i guess they offered them irregularly in 94s/95s, so you sort of had a cheap unicorn haha!
Keep it up. I've been thinking about bagging my ITB'd 1.6 91miata.
