Alright!After 3 weeks of work,12 hour days yesterday and today,my car is finally painted! We took it down to bare metal,repaired,reprimed and repainted in Jalepeno Green Metallic basecoat/clearcoat. Wow, does it shine. I cant wait to roll it out in the sun tommorrow and peel back the tape. Once I get it reassembled and get my good rims back on,I'll post some pics. Woohoo happy day!!!!

Thanks for all the comments.

As for the cost:600 bucks for paint and clear,1000 for the labor. It had a few dings and tons of wet sanding,alot of which I did.

No sh!t....wet sanding is a real b---- isn't it? I mean, I wet sanded for a week (at night) before I was satisfied that it was ready for paint.
