itll be done in 3 - 4 weeks. I only work on the thing like every saturday and then just drive it to and from work all week. im too pooped after work to really get anything done and now i got myself a doggy that needs to poop when i get home.
hood and both fenders done since they were ready to go. im not spraying in a booth im kinda making my own and painting sections at a time and wetsanding the hell out of it and buffing it out. So far the hood and fenders came out awsome. got the bumper off and have been sanding it here and there for the past few days. Theres been alot of evo mods sprayed on it so theres alot of 80 gritting and then working sand scratches out of primer so its totally being a pain in the ass. and paint cracking in all those nooks and crannies of the lower front lip is just a total bitch and im being pretty damn picky about it. if i get the bumper and lip sprayed before friday, then rear bumper/roof/trunk this weekend, jam it out the next weekend, then passenger door/pass quarterpanel - driver door/driver 1/4 panel the following and itll be about done. just brake calipers and **** left.

**** no. Iv bought single stage 1 time in my whole life and it was to spray the trunk lid of a car that was already single stage. I would not do it to my own car. Now after i spray it im gonna rock it for a month or two and then sell it. Its 90% back to stock, fresh paint job, and get rid of her and get me something cheaper and more practicle to beat on for work.
