Very nice, though it looks like you didn't mask off behind the bumper cover...but again I say, still looks great

it looks red but to be thruthful hard to tell how good you did. from that distance and the quality of the pic there could be runs all over it and dirty and debree and we wouldn't notice. kudo's for learning how to paint though and doing it yourself.

Looks alright. Kudo's for painting it on your own. I did my own back a few years ago and wasnt to happy with it and ended up paying someone els to redo it. On a side note though why didnt you pull the taillights before you painted it? Its not like they are hard to remove How long since its been finished? The paint will shrink up and show flaws a lot more when it fully cures.

So... just wondering, why'd you go back to a completely stock basic look?
I mean, are the skirts etc coming back?
