The price you are paying for the paint seems rather expensive to me. I love the color though. The cost of a quality paint job is the reason I am gonna do mine myself. I was gonna do it all after this next tour to Iraq but I am just gonna fix all the rust under the car and on the body taken care of and then seal and prime it and leave it at that for awhile. Maybe throw a light coat of clear on top to help the primer not soak up the water. Labor cost is the biggest reason I do everything myself.And its how I make my money on the side

Thanks alot guys, yeah i thought the paint sounded really expensive too, but he showed me the price from where he buys it from so i trust him.... hes a really stand up guy when it comes to business from what i can tell so far. he fixed my best friends dads 07 tundra that got shot 7 times from an attempted car jacking, can't even tell anything happened to the thing.
i can't wait either, sorry no update today, everybody had to work today so i was out of a car -_- but oh well.... hopefully i can get up there and get some more pictures.
