Rims look good! Need to get that hatch painted asap....lolwell normally i would spray paint like i usually do, but i want to paint the whole car. so i might just keep the car looking like this and just deal with it until i get some money to get it painted.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to oldschoolteg again.

[DeeAOne]

a bad night for the teg. i was pulling into a friends driveway, and off all the things to run over, i ran over a can of spray paint. green exploded onto the car. front fender, part of the passeger door, and some of the wheel. i managed to get most of it off. still some on the wheel and mudflap though. at least its getting painted, eventually. lol

[DeeAOne]

and speaking of spray paint, heres an update on the money shot. not much change at all.

when i first got it.

[DeeAOne]

Your getting there bro...... Howcome no pictures of the spray-paint accident!?!?i cleaned most of it up. still some on the wheels and small cracks. ill go snap one real fast.

[DeeAOne]

it was much worse. but i went to work with some carbuerator cleaner and got most of it off. this area is the only place where there is still paint. it was all on my passenger side door and front fender. still have to repaint my wheel though.

Back when I was like 13, my dad had an old 83 chevy and I ran over a white gallon sized paint can and it got all over his front passenger side wheel and passenger side door... I thought he was gonna beat my as$.....lol We just let it stay on there though.

[Athens_Red_Rexin]

Looking good man!

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to DeeAOne again.

[jew_boy]

[DeeAOne]

Looking good man!

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to DeeAOne again.thanks.

[FasTech]

thanks.

Don't rattle can it bro...Just wait and get the money to really paint it! I know you know me, but I could paint it for you if you bought the paint.. I painted 2 cars and helped on serveral cars... I'll post some of my work in just a second.. Now I'm not Bucky by no means but I'm pretty decent.... And if you were to go with rattle can, please don't primar it.. I hate primar'd cars... Back when Jason had that CB7 you bought, I remember when he did that.. Sh!t looked so ghey.

[DeeAOne]

Sh!t looked so ghey.yeah i saw what the original paint looked like before he primered it(looked in the trunk, etc.). it was pretty nice. i definitely want to go with the same color, just oem finish.

[FasTech]

I sent you a picture of something I basically did! I'm trying to get a picture of something I did completely on my own.
