This last week had spring break at work so I took the time to fix the paint on my car. About 200, some elbow grease, and a week...this is the results! It's a great DIY project...if anyone wants some pointers let me know i'd be glad to do a DIY write up!

did you use rattle can or gun? for people that are hatin on the rattle can and he did this with a can ... hats off to you my friend. if you could rattle can and not get any spots or paint blotches, thick or thin points and you were able to get it glossy using canned clear you are quite the painter. its much easier to paint with a gun than a can. specially painting large surfaces. how did you do this i wanna see a diy asap!!!
