Looks really good man, but why did you sell your red hatch with sr swap to only go and buy a black hatch with sr swap? Don't tell me it was because of the fake 5-lug hubbies

It looks really nice man. How did you strip off all the paint originally?

I just sanded it down and cleaned it. Then used some high heat primer filler, some high heat blue paint and make sure you add some high heat clear coat to add the shine!! It took about 6 hours total to do. I let each layer dry for about 2 hours
