damn good stuff man! black looks so clean..i love it..it's the hardest to take care of but it looks so awesome!!
Looks really nice! I dont care for the spoiler posts though..too big:) Super clean car though.
Not to play down your beautiful paint job - but the before picture looks just as good. You should have learned more from the advertizing we are all subjected to from birth and given a really sh*tty looking picture as the "before".
All joking aside your paint job, rims and spoiler look great!
wow...looks really good! nice job!

Hey negative if u notice the before picy was taken when it was sunny(look at the shadow on the grass) and the after was taken when it was over cast sorry about that but not figured out how to get the weather to do as i please

Hey man love the car!! Black is the best cool IMO.

Oh and its cool to see a scot on the board, my mother was born in Scotland, they lived in Edinburgh, my Grand father grew up in the Isle of Rassay.
nice assss paint job man yo where did u get it done at and how much did u pay?
Cheers for all ur comments guys .

latinomasfino i only got the side skirts and the little splitters on the bottom of the front bumper painted the rest of the car was just polished with a machine to take all the dead paint off it, everyone thats seen it in the flesh thinks it looks brand new thing is its 10 years old in december lol,cost me £200 which i would think is around $375-$400

Got it done at a place thats just near my work , only needed to leave it overnight to >smile.gif>

kevstir its very nice!!!
If you look at it close from the side its a different car!!!!:)
Nice..but i think its hard for you if you going for the front lip...cuz of the lowering springs you got:)
Looking fabulous man; can't wait to get my exterior done. Saving up for my paintjob, got quoted today at 2200$ for full repaint and mounting of TRD wing, ViS sides and splitters. Making 6.55/hour at CVS doesn't reap in too much money though, I'm scared to actually do the match and determine how many hours that is. Regardless, your car is looking great - looked great before now it just looks even better! Love the five spoke wheels, nothing accents our cars better.
looks good
