Got bored one day, decided to do some rattle can painting, cost me 22 dollars to do.....before anyone asks how i did it, me and my friend sanded with 220, primer and painted, that's all for now, been raining all week, once it clears up ill sand more, shoot more coats and finish it up right...but as for now ill throw up some pics...looks good, but when you get close to it you can pick out some where the paint ran, also it was very windy the day i decided to do it so the roof didnt get much of a thick coat....also got quite a bit of over spray, but it's all gone now i used my buffer and cleaned it up
btw this my first time ever really trying body work on my own lol for what its worth, i think it came out great...but you're all welcome to hate
some time in the summer ill re-do the white also since its faded and chipping in some spots
dosent look bad in the pics i kinda like it i just think it looks kinda awkard from behind for some reason tho. nice job
if you hadn't painted your drums red or put on the ghey 2001 eyelids i would love this car so much more. also you need to take a hacksaw to the antennae.
that is all.

to each their own, red was better than rust lol the eye lids some days i like them, somedays i dont and i had the antenna off for a while then one day i got tired of my CD and tried to put radio on and it didnt work out too good
Also before anyone starts hating on the hood pins on stock hood, they came with the car when i bought it lol
@03cav83, i think i see what you're saying about the behind pic, i NEED tints to complete the full black top half
black is better than rust and red
would be better if you flowed it into the fenders
It looks really weird to me and I can't really figure out why, because i like that idea. Some window tint would go a long way I think
Tint, black crome or dark on front grill and blackheadlights and def a drop
Good luck man
Modding my j since I found the org
The fender part bothers me.
that avenger is my brothers car, i told him it was a chicks car but he didnt listen ! lol next step is window tint, i can get them done for 90 dollars with warentee, ive just been so broke lately
the fender part is wierd, i didnt want the whole car to be split in half with 2 colors, just want the top half like the eagle talons
it is dropped like 2 inches, when i bought it, they were already on Eibach lowering springs, it's not slammed but it is Alot lower then stock and that fine for me, my town's roads are terrible and i can barely get in and out of my driveway as it is already
I woulda just painted the roof.
Pssst....The Cavalier is concidered a "chicks" car too. Just saying. Other than that, I think it turned out pretty good. Defintely need to paint those drums and calipers black.

LMAO! i wouldn't listen either if somebody driving a cavalier told me it was a chicks car.
overall though, for being a rattle can job... it looks pretty good in pictures.
Thanks =)
yeah i guess Cavaliers do seem like chick cars, especially a white one lol but yeah the pics make it look perfect, getting close you can see some minor imperfections ill fix soon enough
I dont mind it... im trying to figure out whats hanging off your rear bumper
had a blown ecotec swapped 2000 cavy, now just an 02 Grand Am, and a 74 BMW 2002...
Carry the black down the hood like 20cavy02's car. I like our chick cars though
Would look better and flow better if you had tint.
Not bad though. I have plans to do this with my red.car when I paint it. I had 2 1ga eclipses and both were red and black.
