I like how you started with paint! Mine is stock paint but I babied it so much it looks decent for being 20 years old but damn it fresh paint really makes a car pop. Are you ceramic coating when done? Are you going white on the repaint or back to red?

It’s going to be red however going for a brighter shade than original, as far a coating goes I highly doubt it but is clear coating for sure

Nice to see you redoing it, but why the heck would you/they leave the headlights installed for a repaint when they can be removed on ten minutes or less?????

Not sure why the headlights were left in , I’m no body man , but he is doing the job at a seriously discounted price and the paint behind the lights is still in great shape. I am replacing the headlights at some point in the near future so that could be the reason

Ive been wanting to get mine painted for sometime now, but I'm going to paint my front end separately before I put it together just to get my nerve up to sand the rest of the car. Right now she still do t look bad with a little elbow grease.
