Default Getting the car painted as we speak.

This was the car before it was taken to the paint booth.


This is the car now. will post more pictures after the job is finished.


comments welcome. flame suit on.



forgot to tell you it has not been sanded yet so far that just the paint itself and no clear coat yet. yeah it's still pretty ugly but as i said i'll post more pictures.
