Hey, whats goin down all. I just figured since I have to rebuild my engine that I would go ahead and paint my car while my engine was out. So here are some before and after pics. Tell me what ya think. and the fenders are painted there just not installed yet (kinda waitin till I get my engine back in first).

Nice colour, just you've only painted half the car. I'd also get rid of that wing.

I t was primer gray but I added a silver base to the whole car then I added Viper blue metalic for the weird yet original design I did I still have to clear cote it all to get the silver to shine. as for the blue it already shines great but a little clear will even out the lines and give it that nice show look. Still deciding on what color to do the hood, and exterior trim. My interior is all graphite black and grey vynle with a silver dash, that fades to graphite black on the console with blue gauge bezel and the trim arount the sterio and shifter are also blue. it has a custom leather shiftboot with a street glow shifter. I also have blue underbody lighting on the vehicle as well. And I would have done the whole car blue if it weren't for the price of the paint.



well thats all i have to say for now

If for some reason the pics aren't workin then blame it on my Image host. They decided to cut my bandwith on me. So if they don't work just wait a little bit and try again.



Thanks all for the comments,
