  • My New paintjob

    I started with this...

    and got this for $8 (roughly $1 a can)

    I got tired of the plain ol' flat black and sprung for a custom job that set me back about $35 and a few hours.

    I have a history of painting my last car as often as most people wash theirs (weekly). Not sure what my next one will be yet.

    ^^That actually looks pretty cool!!!

    2008 Ford Escape - Rollover Survivor

    1990 Festiva - First Ever Completed KLZE swap (SOLD)

    If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

      Wait a minute, you painted the signal lights. Do they still show up properly? Good job on the rest of the car BTW! The pushbar is awesome!

      Oh, and I just noticed the bottom eyelid on the last pic. That's cool!

        Thanks guys The signal lights have a thin layer of paint covering them and show up fine. And yes, I gave it lower eyelids lol. I just need to get the rest of my parts for the turbo setup and I'll be extremely happy with this little beast. still need to buy an intercooler make piping, and either buy a new msd btm or ms.
