Good color choice. Once you go black, you never go back

since it cost $700, i'm guessing you didn't get the door jambs and engine bay painted

doesn't look bad though

Paint looks good from what I can see, but shame on you for the fake eyelids...

Thanks guys! It is a pretty decent paintjob for 700$ and i did get the door jams painted (flat black) . For the evil eyes i wanted to get them welded into the hood but my body man said it would only crack in the future and look bad, so he didnt really want to do it. But i have plans for a new hood sometime this summer, perhaps carbon fiber? I also have a wing for this car but im debating if i should put it on or not. It is also painted black now. Heres a pic

nice for $700. now it needs a drop and some wheels lol

Tell him to learn how to weld. It's pretty easy not to warp metal... But I give him props on admitting to not know how to do it rather than learning and messing your hood up in the process. The rest of the car looks clean but pictures can be deceiving. Congrats on getting it cleaned up

i say less stock lol. i like it but get the fire gt front and a new exhaust with rims and a drop and tits for sure. o and also a carbon fiber hood with evil eyes would make the car. paint job turned out really well.

Hate the 00-02 rear bumper. Like the paint. Hate the evil eyes. Like the fenders. Hate the spoiler.

I would of put a 00-02 fire GT front end on but its smashed up (from my spare car) Do you guys think i should get the 95-99 gt front end or 00-02 gt front end. It has the 00-02 rear bumper from the gt and the side skirts as in the pics. I may get a lip for the bumper untill i get a gt bumper.
