Default Pics of my newly painted Dodge Viper blue CRX :)

Here are some pics of my CRX that was painted last week. It is a 89 DX, automatic, with a MPFI swap. The color is Dodge Viper blue. Let me know what you think.

What it used to look like:




Primered at the painters house, awaiting paint:




And the finished product:












Sorry for all the pics, I'm just really happy with the way it turned out. My pics are not even close to doing the car justice.
------------------------------
EDIT:
Finally got the front and back grills painted black, the bumper lights installed, and a new license plate frame and cover I'm also working on changing the interior from blue to black.

I plan to paint them black, I haven't gotten around to it yet. I just got the car back yesterday.

Yeah the wheel is a little off. The car was in a minor fender bender, and I'm not really sure how to fix the wheel. Do you think some washers might push the wheel up where it needs to be?

I'm gonna keep the auto tranny and stock motor until one or the other blow up. The car is my daily driver and the MPFI swap really helped out power-wise. Plus I've got another turbo 5speed CRX in the works!
