Default The Official: My car just got painted thread.

Figured this would be a good place to post pics of your newly painted cars.
Maby some discussion on where you got it done, Price and Before and after shots.

Paid 2000 for the conversion labor and full color change including all jambs minus the enginebay.

In the process of doing a halfass rattlecan semiflat black on the bay for the time being right now too ... i'm going to pull the motor over winter, do a mini tuck and spray it the right way.

Before:


After:


It's back at the body shop as we speak right now getting fixed from an accident, along with some changes, including full interior spray with everything pulled minus the dash. I'll post pictures of that next weekend when it comes out.
