My estima Project....Toronto, canada (Update)

Since last june, i flew over to SoCal and imported a s/c rwd dual sunroof back to toronto!

After i drove 8000kms, the headgasket blew, s/c is blowing out to intake and i have to replace with another jdm engine and spare s/c i got from Socal! but guess what? for some reason, in toronto there is no Jdm s/c engine. Then i have to drove my daily egg and drive to nyc and pick up jdm engine.

Finally, after long winter.....my bodyshop will be sending my egg to paint booth next week.

The color i want to choose is dark midnight purple....can u guys give me some idea. Thx!
