For a spur of the moment paint job it looks great. I wish I could do that with my turdgen. Love the look of the Z28 spoiler and white wheel trim.

(All that work, but why oh why didnt you pull the taillights, markers and headlight trim?..sorry I had to do it)

To be honest with you I am anal about everything when it comes to cars. I grew up watching my father fix cars and now I have trouble appreciating any kind of car without picking out the flaws in it. That being said, I did it the way I did because I would have just kept going. If I started to take things off I wouldnt have been able to stop and it would have turned into a restoration. To be honest there are a few small flaws in the paint itself(aside from the fact that I didnt do any body work at all) and I cant wait until this weekend to work on them. Not that I should even bother with it because it looks good for what it is but I cant help it.

Ah, I understand. That is one of the main reasons I havent really started the body work on my car, because I know as soon as I do it will be in a thousand pieces.

I'd say it looks fantastic for a weekend paintjob. Nice work.
