New Paint Job - Comments???
Sunday, October 31, 2010 2:15 PM
ok here it is i bought the car for $500, its a 2002 2200 5spd with 201000 klm, the clear coat was coming off the driver door really badly, it needed front brakes, front wheel bearings, one gas tank strap, reverse light switch and a blower motor resister. i did all the work myself, i refuse to have ANYONE else but myself work on my cars, then i decided to paint the car in my garage since i have a 40 gallon compressor and all the tools (welder and such) to do the body work and here is the before and after pics. feel free to comment. oh and the front lip is nothing more then the rubber molding that was on the doors, and i picked the rims up off kijiji for $60 for all 4 and the tires i got from a wreck with only 2000klm on the for 140 for all 4.

better pics would help. did you do the jambs and bay too? and even w/o seeing the lip better, im going to say NO on it. even if it looks ok, there are just some things that you cant/shouldnt use on your car.
