well i figured I'd give an update!!!!!!!
ok well i got my car painted and installed a 4th gen manual console and seats. the car was a stock v6 t5, now it has a 350 6speed(sig) so yea.... here it is at the begining.
the paint had quite a few defects fading, damage to the fenders dents so on. but this pic shows its best state lol.
After paint
this shows the color in the shade/overcast gets really dark
And here it is in the bright sun
All and all im very very pleased with the work the painter did i couldnt be happier and i got a good deal

Wow, look awesome
I am slowly saving for my new paint, I think I will start taking sandwiches for lunch at work instead of eating out,. That should give me $30-$40 more a week, now looking at a May date.
I hope my paint looks as good as yours!

so thats what my car would look like if it was nice... lol looks great, do you drive it everyday?? if so i hope you park far away from any cars with doors, some people have no consideration and you will get a few door dings that you might not have if you had left the guards on... although i cant blame you for taking them off, they look great...
