After that we started the becoloring preparation process itself.
We needed to make the surface matted where we wanted to put brown color.
Together with it we needed to decide, where to lay that stripe, that was initially on the car as a sticker?
This time we decided to draw it instead of to stick the new one.
As you can see on one of the pictures, back door is also with the stripe, because we need to 'divide' that black and brown colours:

While the car was disassembled, I decided to change the alarm horn, installing Nautilus (red) instead of original one. As it is quite powerful, it demands extra wire from the battery to the horn to provide sufficient power supply.

I must have to say that to assemble the car is much more difficult than to disassemble it:))
Anyway, finally (98%) it acquired the following view:

Looking good!

Maybe it's the lighting + camera, the red is a lot more subtle than I was expecting.

I like it.

Yes, you are right!
Actually color differs from that one from the first picture. We've got standard Porsche color - Mahagony for this purpose. Actually it is dark brown I would say.
Sorry for the bad pictures quality, this is phone's camera I suppose. Actually, I didn't get my car back, yet. So I can't do normal pictures. When I receive it back, I'll make new photos.
