Well, I figured I'd give you guys an update on how my car is going... I spent some time cruising it, and decided it was time for paint. This was my first time doing paint by myself. It came out alright I think... I made the mistake of laying the tape stripes down first and forgot to paint the trunk jams. I will spray those and my hood when I get my hemi hood scoop in.
Hope you guys enjoy!
