Default Changing Colors

All,
I need some info on how to remove the doors, mirrors, fenders, front and rear bumper covers. I am looking at repainting my black 2002 and going with the Electron Blue that I used when I painted my 1980. Love the color and I know that to do it right, I need to remove as many panels as possible and shoot them separately.

Any posts that deal with this?

Thanks in advance...

I'd buy a service/repair manual for your car if I were you!

Look in the c5Zo6 section, in the first page or two you'll find a thread about changing color on his Z.

The user name is "tech" and he changes from black to a dark blue Audi color. The are pictures and advice in the thread. You can Pm the people that helped him with questions too.

Good luck with it.. be sure to post pictures along the way!
