that sucks. i bought 1 gallon of grey sealer in omni with 2 quarts of hardener and a gallon of reducer and a gallon of orange metallic pearl for 300
I couldve bought cheaper stuff too but Id rather use better stuff for better results. My friend wanted the best primer the store sold.
This store only sells Dupont paints. They used to have Omni and I had one of my trucks painted with it and it was fine.

I just went to the autobody supply store and dropped down $800 on paint, clear and other supplies and materials.
My car goes in the shop tomorrow for rust and dent repair and a complete repaint. I also plan on getting the Cobra grille put on and I need to order a hood for it.
Im thinking about getting a Cobra R fiberglass hood.

My friend is doing all the bodywork and paint at his bodyshop and he's giving me a hell of a deal on labor.

Finally I wont have to see rust holes and dents and rusty fenders anymore. I hate seeing that crap now.
for a few years.

I hope it doesnt come back. Im replacing both rusty fenders with new ones and putting new metal in the 1/4 panels.
Theres just a little rust on the inside of the doors and some on the tip of the hatch.

Dents will inevitably happen unfortunately. Parking lots suck.

I want the Cobra R without the fake vents though. Boss doesnt seem to sell that one.
