What did you spray it with? Looks pretty straight but it’s tough to tell when it’s in primer. Interesting project.

its pretty straight. i could spend 10 hrs per door like resto style. but of course no one will spend $10k on a neon paint job.

I only use dupount. thats the new dupont. 777 premiere primer my cost about $200 gal setup. 1st time using it. good test car ;x
