Did a little cleaning
only half way done, I need to re-route some of the wires and degrease the under side.
Went at it again with the rattle cans, all in all I'm happy with it

needs a wet sand and another coat...next sunny day I'll be at it again. I still need to get some wire loom and get all that wire mess away, then after I swap the trans i'm gonna get a pretty water pump and timing cover and a nice lumpy bump stick.

I like the all black look. Blacked out corners and painted wheels give it that evil look.
Wish I had my 3rd gen on the road.

Looks good, Bubba. Certainly not bad for a rattle can job.

yes, because i couldn't stand having a car with potential if I just gave it some TLC but I couldn't afford to have it done professionally. So the rattle can is a happy medium, and it makes for that Road Warrior vibe lol

I love the wheels cause the tires and wheels kinda blend together and the blend with the car...really doesn't stand out at all, I love how discrete the whole car is

Paint looks good for a rattlecan job, but if you like how the wheels blend in so much, then why didn't you get the raised white letters turned in?

Cool. Now pull the rear springs out & cut 1/2 coil off.

Road Warrior? more like a garbage can mobile.
I think a ****** macco paint job would look nicer than that.
