and back together now,finally got the rest of my parts i was waiting on Saturday, spent Yesterday and today putting on the rest of the trim pieces and polished the paint today. It is nice and sunny out so i backed it out for some pic's.
Hope you like.
Karsten the polish applied by hand took care of the haze i was seeing in some spots :bounce:

Same color so I am sure you have all the supplies....
 
DeeVee8 I have everything you need to make it shiny black again,will need a little more clear and another Qt or 2 of paint, but plenty of sand paper. My next project will be here next week :yahoo: going out to Ca to meet the transport driver and get it headed back my way,flying out this Friday.

Karsten,it took a lot of rubbing and touch up here and there but i think i got all the spots that did not get sanded or buffed enough :waxer: can't wait to get some wax on it,every little thing that touches leaves a small scratch,it's about to drive me :bonkers: It looks great,but a PITA to keep clean :hissyfit:

I was at Kevin's last week. I will tell you the pictures are not even close to telling the truth. It looks MUCH better in person.
 
Kevin, you did a great job on the car... It takes some balls to take on a job like that with no experience!!!

It turned out much nicer than anyone expected after seeing the "Rhino Liner" paint! :bounce: :lol::lol::lol::waxer::banghead:

That was pretty ugly,wasn't it :amazed:

We don't really need to keep reliving that moment do we,i would like to forget about that little nightmare.

Nice job Kevin. Do you know about how many hours you have in it?

Well i did an average of 4 hr's/day sometimes i worked more and some less,from October - March = 720 hr's. since i did not work on it everyday i took 1/2 that time and came up with 360 hr's. I would say at least 360 hr's or more that i have into this paint job and the body work.
 
Let's see here. Since Kevin's rate of pay is $.04 hour (it would be higher if he'd apply himself) That 360 hours = $14.40. Looks like he saved about $5000.00

And got a $10,000.00 paint job. GOOD TRADE~!
 
Look's great Kevin. Sure you don't want some side work?:kissass::kissass:
