well it looks ok for a $500 paint job. i thought it would have been shade darker because all they had where those little shitty samples, but oh well it will match the motorhome nicely lol





oh it did look like this monday.

That bottom pic sports a shade kinda like vomit...look at it this way,it wont rust,which is what the fights about....

yeap, there some orange peel and a few fish eyes but over all it not bad. yeah the little sample looked darker, but when held up against it it does match i still wanted it a shade darker

i had my old bug painted by them back in 1998, they let it dry outside on a dusty road so my paint was dusty hehe, so i guess you lucked out.
