well my cars paint was in really bad shape...oxidation, hit and miss primer...it just looked horrible
so...
i decided to do the $50 paint job...i had almost everything already except sandpaper and paint so i bought 1 quart of Semi Gloss Black Rustoleum and sandpaper 400-2000grit...
i used a Wagner electric spray gun on the vertical setting...thinned the paint 50/50 with acetone
and here's the results....
i have tried the $50 paint job with a gloss color and its just WAY too hard to get it to shine...
while in the process i tinted my headlights and tail lights, and put a $10 lip on the front bumper...
don't mind the over spray on the muffler, I'm getting a stock looking muffler later on this summer, i also do not have a pass. side fender so thats why all the pics are from the drivers side
