Looks like she could use a wet sand and buff, she will shine nice after that

i was thinking the same thing on the wet sandandbuff , but it don't look bad for 450, that ther wouldn't even cover the cost of supplies if ya did it your self , looks good .
and as long as you are happy with it is all that matters and on the plus side as you get more money comin in you can have itreshot again .

paint does not cost that much unless u buy it from the most expensive paint

is that a base coat clear coat or a single stage enamel.

u could paint it with a 1 stage witha couple quarts of primer and a gallon of paint and some sandpaper,plastic,cheap gun,everything else.i am doing it myself and so far in my sig it has 2 coats of filler primer and was done in my garage with fan and all the filter's and regulators and with a harbor freight gun so far i have 50 bucks in the primer job done by myself and the gallon of nason dupont gloos black with hardener is goona cost me a 100 bucks so u see u could of done yourself and saved more money and ill guarantee mine will look as good if not better.[8D]

mine is that low. it may be because of factory wheels and big tires. mine is lowered 1 3/4 to 2" but it rubs when i hit bumps. the paint looks good!

Might be a good idea to blur out your license plate.

Why is it pointless? I could find his address if I wanted to. I mean, better safe than sorry.
