thx. I gave the guy 700 for the body work, paint and every thing. the window tint is 20%. I was going to go 5% but the 20% was plenty dark enough for me.

yeah. real decent price for the fact that iv been dealing with overspray in the engine bay and even a little on the inside of the car. but in all. its not that bad of a deal at all.

Very nice! I like the look - it is very similar to our current project, except we have louvers, and have not tinted the windows yet.You got a good deal on the paint - we did all of the body work, primered and wet-sanded - then paid $500 to have paint shot on it.

Excellent work!
