Damn that looks AWESOME man. Usually I'm not a huge fan of DGP, but you and a few others have really made me think twice about the color. Any plans on finishing the A-Spec kit by getting the sides?
I love the hellafunctional sticker
Nassau County? Orange Country FTW

Thanks for the compliment!
And yeah, Nassau County. Amelia Island to be exact. I live in CT now though.

hellafunctional is hilarious. i fully support that.
your car looks great. super clean. the a-spec side skirts are so nice tho. that'll complete it perfectly.

Love the rims. Loving that drop. Nice ride bro. I need to stop being a wuss and get some lower grill fogs already. I'm just afraid I won't do it that well, with all the cutting and such. Your DGP is on point!!

Glad it turned out so well, I knew it would though. Justin you have a magic hand with that spray can, let me tell you. Between your lip kit, Carrie's grill and Leo's insane RL grill, you did great work over the weekend. That makes you the lucky winner to paint my Sarona... awesome huh?!
Can't wait for Heckscher.

Yes, lol. One can do great things with a rattlecan as long as you prep everything right and have a steady hand.
Looks great man!
Thanks brother! I can't wait either, I might actually have something to show this year.
Let's do it!

The car looks great. I had the same set of rims come in to a local shop to put on, but they didn't clear the Brembos....The look on a dropped car is really nice. Great look!

I'm going to put a couple more coats of clear on it this weekend if weather permits.

Not sure what the tips were, but they have a really wide and even spray pattern. Made for great coverage.
I'm probably going to re-do the front. I want to fill in the little indent that separates the gray part front the green part, then spray the whole front lip green. Gotta buy more paint for my engine covers anyway.

Actually there is an auto body supply store near where I live and I had them mix me up two 12oz cans of DGP in an enamel (clear already mixed in). It covered REALLY well and matches near perfect.

Wow, that looks amazing. Can you give a short diy of how you prepped it for paint and your techniques for actually painting it. Also, can this paint be bought at any auto shop?
