Default no more rust/dings/dents - new body and paint - (56k no way)

these are initial pictures right after rust/damge repair and full paint job. no cutting, buffing or fitting of body panels has been done.

highlights:
JDM SiR spoiler
Spoom mirrors
shaved antenna/emblems
EK skirts

flame away.....








[edit] hid a bunch of them cause i keep hitting bandwidth problems

so if you didn't cut anything, how'd you do it? Looks very good! Is that an S2K muffler?

LOL, yeah. i don't have any idea what "cutting" the body means. i'm just trying to sound intelligent by repeating what my paint guy says

"cutting" means wet sanding, and "buffing" means polishing out the sandind....to get rid of orange peel.

Once the paint releases its chemicals and you get that sucker shimmering, it will look good

Wghat kinda hood?

take it back to the body shop and tell them to line your hood up and line your bumper up. get that fixed and it will look good.
