The car looks great. Its come a long ways since you first joined the board. (I follow the V-6 Canadain Camaro's that are in the atlantic region) I remember when you first posted a body fill, 7 shades of primer car, and now your car looks immaculant.

My G/F's brother did an S-10. He said it was something he would never do again. He said it was tedious work, and I believe him hes a body shop guy so he knows his stuff, and from what I see your car looks amazing.

What type of tint did you use and where did u get it? Also, did you have to do the back in sections, or does someone sell a roll of tint big enough to do the hatch in one piece?
