Oh it's on. My wife just said she wouldn't ride in it anymore. Fine by me, one less driving instructor to worry about.

Haha^

Looks sick but those are more than I paid for my e30.

Cheap price cheap paint job. End of story. I would probably just paint the trim black your self least you know it will be done right then.

Srsly though I would have just rattle canned the car if I was you. Then one day when I had then money got the job done right. Unfortunatly the younger generation (meaning you) expect quality for nothing.

Always remember this if you want something good it pays to pay.

Just because you can buy good electrical goods and clothing for penuts these days dosn't mean everything that is cheap is good.

Oh man how did I miss this train wreck? You sure it was the paint shop that fucked it up, and not the shipping company?

[lovinmye30]

Lol. Already admitted that i was being stupid and rushed the job. Forgot to roll my fenders in the back so may be s.o.l for flush fitment in the rear. But thank you for again reminding me how dumb it was. The paints growing on me. And from 10feet its fine. Up close it looks lile i didbt it myself with a real sprayer.






Anyone selling rear plastic trim for a euro bumper? Cheap?

[Fidhle007]

Why don't you keep the plastics? Money spent getting euro bumpers to fit could be much better spent fixing that shitty paint.

Well, on the bright side, if you autox it, the cone damage will match.

Thats a good point, also when your date gets motion sick after a fine sushi dinner and pukes sea urchin all over the hood, it will hardly be noticeable.

My paint is growing on me. It is what it is, i guess.

[J308]

Did you black out the random orange parts yet?

[JasonC]

Its needing some black and chrome bad...

[Fidhle007]

[Luis325]

Man black tirm paint! Weaves and looks good!!!!!

[navid41691]

honestly, you were better off with maaco. It wouldn't have killed you to do some prep work yourself, for example, door handles are held on by two screws each, your grills have a few clips and two screws ( would've prevented that over spray on the passenger side), could've removed headlights/taillights, etc. even though you're dropping it off thinking they will take care of this, always take matters into your own hands as a precaution.
As for what to do next, get a liberal amount of trim paint and paint what needs to be black, black. Also some paints tend to change colors slightly as they cure so you never know, the paint might look better in a month or two.

finally, get some general lee stickers. and jump over shit.

[danny4nasty]

And install this horn.

I think the General Lee joke was about 3 pages ago.

He wanted an orange car. It's not like he went there for silver and got orange.
