Ill have to work something out at my house because we dont have a paved driveway or anything, so she is always parked in the dirt/rocks... i hate it! not the ideal place to have a sports car imo even tho i clear everything and move around, with dogs running around or what not, rocks and **** always hit it =(

and the car has actually faded since we moved here.. honestly the flat black didnt look as bad b4.

Spray paint it Flat Black. It'll look nice, and it's easy on the wallet

Hypertek, i am assuming you have an air compressor (150.00). Go to home depot and buy a gravity feed hvlp spray gun (husky 60.00). I would like an electronically controlled sata, but the husky works fine, for outside work.
After some of those fiberglass forums links you have given me, i know you are familiar with the pAINT Prep and process. I have also seen some of the work you have done on here.......... the tails, extended rear duckbill, fitting front fenders, so you are fully capable of sanding and painting (with practice). If you leave the a + b pillars the way they are, you could probably shoot your car for 400.00 or so. Pull hood, fenders, body kit and lip and reassemble after painted. Not that bad, but intimidating at first.

Make sure you buy a inline water trap so when you use your paint gun to dont get any water residue in your pant.
