Hey I had to copy the other guys so let me post some pics of what my car has gone through.

Black phase



Car started getting messed up



And then after I got all my kit and stuff I was gonna paint it silver, but then I saw how good chucks came out in person so I had him paint it for me hahaha. Thanks chuck!

I don't like the wheels, but they aren't ricey in the least.

I'm slightly confused at why you would rattle can instead of just throwing down for a gallon(or 3 gallons for all your cars) and just lay it down with a gun.

It'd be faster, cheaper, and probably look better.

Does look good though.

We were going to do that, but we were kind of in a hurry. The paint actually turned out really well on all 4 cars, so no complaints really.

...Yes it would. Why would it take longer? You still have to do prep work on both....the spray pattern is wider with a gun by ALOT, and it lays down much nicer.

I guess if it costed $40, then its cheaper. But you can get a gallon of fruit loop colored paint on ebay for 50 bucks if you really wanted.

What type of paint did you use? Was it actual "auto paint' from a auto paint shop(just in a rattle can)?

Yeah, it looks good from the pictures (obviously it might look different in person due to quality and such), I was just really surprised when I saw the spray can. Just was curious as to why, thats all. Not ripping on anyone or anything like that.
