Although I'm an idiot and I didn't correctly tape the deck lid properly so you can see some white primer under it... I have to take the rear deck off anyway, to realign it (in class I think) so I'll razorblade it off then. But you live and learn. I am proud of it

I am too cheap to get a good paint job. Maybe after I get that Danko kit (not sure if thats the right name).
