looks good chokes

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

fuck my shop is a mess. 10 things going on at once. - no time to clean lol

justin, i need to block your doors more, i seen a couple iffy spots i didnt like when i checked car staightness / wet.
so ill prolly shoot it thur. instead of wed.

It’s all good with me

Looks killer, makes me REALLY want to repaint the FD right.

UPDATE!!!

Car got masked off this afternoon…in final preparation for paint.

I can’t express how pleased I am with the quality of the paint job. Everything looks straight, and smooth…and it hasn’t even been wetsanded/buffed yet. It can only get better from here. Now…I goto sleep. LOL

you are not allowed to drive this car after nine, in any type of bad weather, or during rush hour. i will help choko kill u if u screw it up. jk man looks really good. i see alot of time went into this paint job and it looks good cant wait to see it.
