back from the body shop w new paint

i had some jackass from wyomig hit me last june, fought with insurance for a while. but i got both quater panel fixed, all hail dings removed, bought my own c/f hood, new hedlights.
it turned out great, the paint color is the stock black witha red pearl laid over, turn out totally different than the paint chip but i like it.

Paint looks good!

You need to reclip the bumper on the passenger side rear.

No offense but, i liked it better when i was black. If it wasn't so glittery, i think i would like it more. Just looks a little girlie to me with all the sparkle. And the rear bumper on the P/S definitely looks like it needs to be adjusted. Otherwise, it's clean. I think we have the same wheels BTW.

you should try removing those strips on the depot headlights...
and the muffler and different rims. Maybe paint your calipers black. The red stands out too much and clashes with the paint big-time.


But! I do like the paintjob, original indeed.
