As far as the paint, it ain't cheap...I had the entire car repainted since the clear was in rough shape and I needed to replace the pass side fender and hood. I bought the paint from a member on the mystic cobra website. He bought an entire gallon and only used almost a quart. Good thing I saw it for sale when I did since I was actually going to go to the ford dealer to fill out the necessary paperwork to purchase the paint from BASF. The car has about 4 coats of paint which was more than enough. I paid $1100 for the paint itself, I think the complete gallon from BASF runs you about $1600-$1700.I used house of kolorz when i first sprayed some of the parts that had real bad clear peel. I painted the roof, trunk, rear bumper, and side skirts, it matched ok and many people couldn't tell the difference but I could and so did my painter. I went with that paint bc I wasn't ready to go through the hassle of getting the real deal. The paint on the car now is the real BASF MYSTIC.Here is a pic showing the front bumper and rear bumper color differences. Rear bumper is done in house of kolorz in this pic. This was when the car was disassembled for the complete repaint.<img src="http://i820.photobucket.com/albums/zz124/Esteban_84/IMG_0575.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></blockquote>
