Yep, more pics soon! Just as soon as the crappy weather moves out and I get some nice sunlight so the blue shows it's fullest. The Indigo blue is awsome in the sunlight! 8)

Yep, did it myself! It's not perfect, being it was my first time painting a car and my makeshift paint both didnt keep out 100% of the dust, but it turned out great! I'm really happy with it. The blue oranged peeled though, but I think a good buff job should take care of most of it. I'm a bit burned out now though, I've sent the last 3 days doing nothing but painting and putting the thing back to gether.
