Default MY SPRAY CAN PAINT w/ CLEAR COAT, $80...GOOD RESULTS

well i shared this project on a local forum, and i see it fitting to share it with you guys because this is where i got my idea to spray can my CRX from.

I used rustoleum enamel spray paint, and rustoleum clear coat

well here are the pics...

I dont have a pic of the whole car before paint....here is a pic that shows how bad it was.
i got it this way, it was a REALLY ROUGH FLAT black paint, OR primer...

this is when i grind all the paint off. i replaced the hatch, hood and fender




here is where i painted the base yellow and black




here is a pic of the car after the paint dried....NO CLEAR COAT YET


and here are two pics of it cleared and buffed...(just the quarter pannel is buffed), this is how it sit now....i have to finish buffing it....but i will show the end results when it is finished

That looks really good for a spray can but does it look as good inperson? I thought about doing this to EG but didn't want to risk fading, easy chipping after acouple months in florida. Then again you only spent $80 and its all about the prep work. Good job as what I can tell by the pics. Please provide more detailed pictures when done.
