thx, well, i got a good deal on this one and had it for 7 months, and my friend insisted it needed a new paint job, he owns a shop on his own. i said black, which is my fav color on any car. so that explains it, but thx for the comments everyone!

but did the jambs and engine get pained? The engine bay is fine if you didn't get it pained but please tell me that the jambs are. In one of the pics, i see the trunk jambs still silver.

Car looks good though.

Sick paint job! Lucky you!

I wish I could get my front bumper painted magnetic black. It looks terrible right now with the daily driving scars.
