Just got done painting my hatch. It's kinda hard to capture the actual color, its actually darker then it looks in the pics. The last pic is a better example of the real color.

Still need to do quite a few things. Put on my Si lip, paint the grills black, tint the windows, clean the car, adjust the hood and doors, etc. etc. Sooo much work to finally get it painted. Spent weeks shaving/welding/filling/sanding/prepping

For anyone interested, I painted the car with an Epoxy Primer. I thinned it down to give it that satin semi-gloss look. I kinda wish the color came out a bit darker, but I'm pretty happy with how it turned out seeing this was my first time doing any sort of body work or painting. I'll post up some better pictures once I do a couple more things, I'm just excited it's done.
