Quick Photo Log correcting a shoddy Veilside paint/wrap job

I bought this Veilside at the end of last year for the new motor and presumed good looks. Upon arrival it was apparent that the wrap was used to conceal a crappy paint job. Not only was the body not smooth, the wrap job was horrible. It has taken months to get it back to where it is now, almost complete... The first pic is what I was sent when buying it...

after several months of smoothing out and finishing the kit properly, we put down the House Of Kolor - Pearl Orange paint...

I'll need to check, I haven't had the car at my house since I got it. I am going to sell it as soon as the paint is finished later this week... I lost interest in it since I bought it....keith
