$20 paint job
 
Has anyone done the $20 paint job you know where all you have is non reflective primer so your paint dosn't reflect light and does anyone have pics of what it looks like on a rx7?

Austin!!!!~~~ Do what I say!!~~~

Save your money and get a real paint job!!!!!

You will cry when you see your FD with just primer

^ I agree, you can't skimp on paint, it'd just be wrong :)

i kinda think the matte finish looks pretty good... but i'm gonna have to qualify that a little further... i think it looks good on muscle cars not sexy curvy sports cars... i've heard of people doin this Austin, but i'm useless to ya, not seen it or done it myself.

primer cars? lmao, i didnt know people actually did this until i saw a brigade of mexican trucks primer grey...

If you primer your fd as your paint job i will drive to your house and smack you in the face.

Not on an RX-7 that's worth more than $200.00

There is a saying in cycling that goes a little something like this. "If you got a $5 head, get a $5 dollar helmet."

I.E. If you got a $20 dollar FD, get a $20 dollar paint job.

Wow.......wow.

i didnt know $20 worth of primer would cover an entire car. dont go buy the stuff and do it yourself unless you find someone who knows what they are doing. you can still get paint lines from pirmer.

it looks good.... on 70s sedans in a madmax kinda way.

respecttheseven 07-09-04 01:19 PM

yesss mad max and the thunderdome! primer style!

austinsFD 07-09-04 02:13 PM

it looks bad...

besides it would raise the cost of doing a proper paint job since they would have to take off more now that you added a new layer.
