if you have any questions about painting ask me. the clear coat on the bumper looks very dry. spray a little slower and you will do less wet sanding when you are finished

Ok everyone....tonights update!!!!

The car is all painted and just needs to be wet sanded and buffed. The rear end is put together and i must say, it looks ******* HOTT! Here are some pictures...



















It's still not all put together, we're letting the paint cure a little better before we start putting other things on. Tomorrow ill have pictures of the whole car wet sanded and buffed and washed and sitting in the sun. I'm excited!!!

Man, you must be so happy! Can't wait to see it with your new wheels too, that'll look great. Then all you need is fog lights and a lip and it'll be even more amazing :O
