Default New paint, tinted corners Black Mica 94 RS - GSRt

Here are a few pics of my car. I just finished painting it about 4 days ago. The pics of the new corners are when the car is filthy, so don't pay attention to that. The color is Black Mica (Mazda color)- no real body mods, I just shaved the emblems, lost the mudflaps, shaved the top squirter and replaced both quarters (honda rust). I did the paint myself, and it came out relatively nice...and best of all it cost me less than 100$. The corners cost like 7 bucks to do. Not too bad for a weeks work.







None of the pictures do the paint justice. At first glance it looks black, under street lights at night it looks gunmetal and in the daylight it has really really nice flake.

I will have better pics once I finish buffing/waxing it. I also plan to paint the wheels...fee free to give advice on that. They are silver rota c8's and I'm considering bronze, gunmetal, black, black mica or gunmetal with a silver lip or black or black mica with a red lip.

haha, the last pic was an attempt to show some of the flake... a miserable failure apparently.
