Default Fresh paint on the DA again after it was vandalized..-lots of pics-

Prior to this paint job i painted roughly six months ago formula red with a gold pearl. Then it was vandalized.
I decided to go back to Milano and threw a gold pearl in. So here she is back again.
I go to school for Autobody and did all the work in school myself. I still have to put on the emblems and the mudflaps

Of course everyone is gonna say YOU NEED WHEELS. yea i know dont bother stating the obvious.

Let me know what you think.....

It's from wet sanding.

Should of got rid of the spoiler and fill in the emblem holes. But looks good anyway.
