$1600 total. With a SHITLOAD of bodywork, sanding, sealant, color change, baking, moulding and paintjob

It's the $800 Base Coat/ Clear Coat paintjob with a 5 year warranty.

how did paint powder get on the dash, lol


I'm not sure, but the dash looks like it has shoe polish that hasn't been buffed to a shine. Anyone faced this before? Need some advice to take this off the dash without doing any damage.

ah yeah chicago isn't a good place to be messing with the height. not a bad price for all that bodywork and the paint looks good! i'd say next step HID's. lip or no lip, i'd say the f2 is charming in person and it's one of the best things i have ever done to the car.

wow, pretty good deal. i paid 1500$ for my body work, body kit installation, shave some stuff, clear coat CF hood, and paint, and its held up GREAT, but i scratched it up a bit in the past 3 years.

Very tidy mate fing02.gif

I expected to see pics of your white car with a DIY paintjob for some reason... but the car is looking great!

I'm very jealous of your side-skirts too btw wink1.gif

yeah I saw that too...

I also got a maaco paint job and there was some orange peel on the inside of the mirrors. But otherwise it was a good job for $1800.
