Hey guys, finally got around to finishing up my car, and thought I'd share some pics, fresh out of the paint shop... Rear wing was shaved, got some 97-99 black housed projectors, and of course the famous 97-99 front bumper. Color is Metallic Black.

Please don't mind the crappy wheels in the rear... I just bought a set of four rims and tires, but only two of the tires had tread left on them. Still haven't gotten a chance to pick up some new tires.
 
describe "metallic black"? Is this like the WRX black, with flakes in it? or is it the wet look black you get at house of kolor?

and time will tell how good of a job they did. what type of primer did they use? how long did they have your car for to paint?

I am wanting to repaint my car as well, but stick with black. Just not sure what color black to use.
 
It has the flakes in it, all sparkly and pretty. They had the car for a little over two weeks, but I'm not expecting much, as I didn't pay much. Turns out better than I hoped, but like you said, time will tell.
 
Just finishing up on the dash... not done (you can see the carbon fiber kind of popping up around the turbo timer, since I under-measured), but it's looking good so far IMO.

Also, painted the centerpiece on taillights too.
