Looks good, need more light to see the car with the wheels, but we all know what c8's look like . h23+h22head=sir mota .

Keep up the good work.

Great first time paint, but it does look a bit dull.

Congrats, hopefully it'll be the first of many.

I must say that your paint job looks amazing, especially for it being your first time....but the pics dont do the car justice. hopefully i get my car painted in the very near future....he he

i can vouch for Jason and his paint job it looks really good, and the c8's really set it off
