not bad. dosent look streaked or anything. though if you have a compressor. i suggest getting a 9$ harbor freight spray gun. and a 25$ gallon of napa or orileys cheap paint. but its good for a spray bomb.

Re: 35 dollars worth of rattle cans =]

Looks good! Primer is finer! Im planning on doing mine like that too, undecided of flat black or grey primer, since I got half the car painted at my old job at a bodyshop before it closed, I have the doors, ground effects, and bumpers unpainted still so I want a solid color and dont have the cash right now to paint it and Id rather drive it than have it sit unassembled for who knows how long! What color you going with?

I say at this point since the car is in one color, do any suspension work, rear end, trans, and engine work now, work on the interior and then do the paint last and in that order. Trust me on this one! No sense in a 500 HP engine that you cant get on because it will shatter the stock rear end.
