For a 1st time paint job, and an outdoor spray, it looks quite nice. At least in the pics. Kudos.

... a few before shots.

BTW Karen is right, If you spray outside watch the overspray! I have the only metallic red garbage can on the block (or at least one side of it)...

OK, more before pics. Note the garage door is still white in these pics. No red tint, duh.

If anyone has a REX with a R7 color code, I would love to see a stock one...

Thanks for the pics man. I'm very impressed with your paintjob and how it was your first time. Great looking car. Looks like you've got a nice neighborhood.

Looks great! I did the same thing with my Mazda 626 Coupe years ago and was suprised at how well it truned out too. It's amazing what you can do when you put your mind to it!
