hey guys what u think heres my project car Its orange right now and the roof and A,B pillars are gunna be black as well the color is a cutom color we mixed up at my garage it was candy apple red but we adde a bit of competition yellow and it became …Tangerine orange i guess just how i like it .  
I installed My Nismo Sideskirts ,OEM rear lip replica and my brother and I used a brand new lip my dad Designed for a TL I believe its a greddy,  
So far teh engine is stock and im not sure if i wanna keep it i may sell it in the spring if i get a good offer but if not , in goes CA18DET and the good thing about my car is the Rails are clean!! For Once

What you guys think about the car, Any suggestions on what i should do/ change because i havent finished painting it yet so if you spot somthing i forgto to fix then i can double check , anyways heres teh car…

1 extra minute to take side markers off

5 extra minutes to take rear lights off

6 minutes goes a long way in the final result !!

if i took the sidemarkers off i know i would have lost if for sure i always lose crap , but that is actually a good idea i never thought about the paint peeling i take teh tape off in sensitiev places when its wet still.

In case you were ever wondering, the General Lee was sprayed in 1975 Corvette Flame Red.

Single stage acrylic enamel, dirt cheap.
