This is how it'll look for now... just got done painting a few days ago.
and i wanted to see how it look on the car. It's like one shade off. but
not too bad for my first spray can job. biggrin.gif I think one more layer might do it.
I hope you guys like it. Don't bash me too badly, it is my first time.


here it is primered with my sides which are not yet on.




here is the first layer.






close up



and finally here it is on my car. still need probably another layer of paint and then the clearcoat too but. so far. I LIKE IT!

Thanks! I got my skirts off ebay. Right now they got two sets i think. they're going for around the same price i got mine. maybe a bit more expensive. but it's worth it if you want them.

Looks great. Once you lower i have no idea how you'd get around on those terrible oshkosh roads without dragging something.

Unless Oshkosh fixed most the roads?
