Woh, thats cool! Wish I could paint my car every year! Wont need to worry about shoping carts, or where you park...
So, how much more years till you need to strip the whole car down to paint again?

Nothing wrong with the right shade of purple...Smarti can just repaint it if he doesn't like it.

If I had the space to paint a car right now, I would be doing the same thing. My 1g talon has been painted twice in 3 years. I do everything though, jambs, engine bay and outside. I wish I had the space to paint, evo would be apart now for a repaint. lol

If you know how to paint and can do all the work yourself, its pretty cheap! I usually spend about 700-1000 for all materials. Depending on colors, brands etc you could get a lot higher and a lot cheaper in price.
