        Thanks but I don't mind. I know that some people don't like what other people do to their cars. It's the internet I don't take it personally because if I did I would be wasting my time! It looks better than it did before and I'm washing it off tomorrow anyways. BTW I LOVE your 1600! It's soooo hawt :up: I want one but I'm broke...

            Ya I'm probably not going to draw on it often lol. It looks better than the gross failed clear coat! And I used a paintbrush not a roller so you can see the brush strokes and I think it looks really cool.

                I already had the chalkboard paint it was free and the paint was scratched and faded under the clear coat. The car sat outside and didn't move for 3 years before I bought it =( it ruined the paint that wasn't great to begin with. You could see runs and drips in the paint. It needs a whole respray

                    Didn't think I was just wanted to explain =) I wish I had the money to do the paint right but I'm a broke college student.

                        Luke, doing just the trunk makes it look cheap IMO, but if you insist that this is an improvement, maybe look into a two tone scheme. Im sure the hood looks just like the trunk. vinyl wrap it black from the body line up and chalkboard the hood too. It might look good haha

                            I actually was thinking of doing that because roof is the worst part on the car! I just want to find some color matching panels in good condition and replace the dented and faded panels. Trunk, hood, grill, and both front fenders.

                              Is that Ernie? I have a creepy memory for license plates sometimes.

                                Well my car quit running on the way to work this morning. It only threw fault code 1 when I pulled over. I reset the ecu and now it won't start. No fault codes now also. I'm waiting for my tow on the 101 north. To top it off my keys are locked in my car since the key is in the on position. FML...
