Nice!

So how much was the paint?

My friend is a body man and I plan to have him help w/ body work and the spray but the materials is what's going to kill me

Is that like a typical price for a same color re-spray? I'm looking to get mine repainted black and it doesn't need to be fancy.

I have no idea, he gave me a good deal though I know that for a fact, cause I bought a new front bumper, and stuff so it wouldnt be as expensive for materials... and he knew I was trying to save money so he helped me out. Anywyas here some more pics!

HOLY ****! That looks fantastic. Maybe the way the sun is shining off the body helps the look, but it looks better than anything that just rolled off the assembly line.
