    Default prepped and painted>>>

    If you don't remember, this was the car for sale for $1200
    (Thanks SOHC MONSTER), needed a clutch and a paint job...used sherlin williams stage 1 base and clear, preped it and sprayed it myself, very happy with the way it turned out...got some H.I.D.'s as well thanks to Nitro, and had enough clear saved to tint the tails the right way, they aren't as dark as they look. still have a few little body peices to buy for the car but im happy.

    I'd say lose the hood pins and the big fart can exhaust and you'd be good IMO, other than that those tail lights are awesome and the paint doesn't look to bad either.
