Umm, well it was a temporary $400 paint job by me. I can paint smaller things much better. Although, I am beinging to sand the car down again. It is being repainted soon by my professional painter friend. Its still gunna cost me at least 3 grand with some minor hail dents repaired. Whats cool is the actual paint job should be costing any other non friend 8 grand or more. I am doing alot of the prep and disassembly/ assembly thought.

The technical part of painting and doing body work was from school, and as for the airbrushing that was self taught.

Thanks, actually it is a factory color from an acura NSX. I just found the color in a book and mixed some up. Oh and BTW I really like the orange that you are paintng your car, it is going look badass when you get it done.
