Wow, that looks pretty good! And smart move with flipping the rest of the car towards interior. And since you can do the jams, and engine bay for $250? I'd go back and do that later?

That's all up to her and she doesn't care. It actually turned out kind of cool because the cars interior matches the door jambs. Now she wants heated seats since I have to tear it all apart anyway.

Here's a pic in better light. I'm not a teenage girl and I would drive this thing with pride.

Wow, ya'll certainly are rough.
It's not a Lexus color that's for sure, but it's not half bad on the SC.

Wow that's excessive.

I would drive it in a heartbeat. The chrome wheels are a perfect compliment to that color too. I think you did great for being on a budget. Keep up the good work.

I agree the previous color was absolutely horrid. It looked just like your car.

The color fits the SC. I would have killed to have an SC like that in high school.

I think it looks pretty good. Looks like a colour Ford used at one time. Way better than the before pics!

The job itself looks pretty good from what I can see, good color IMO, as a guy, I always say "if she's happy we're happy" so more power to you for being different and getting a bright color. I really like it!

She decided to spend a little cash on fixing her dead climate LCD. It was bleeding badly and the bulbs were burnt out.

I'm gonna agree with this. Color looks like the one you see on a civic that has been riced to all hell.

But at the end of the day, it's her car, and if she likes it, more power to her. I'm personally not a fan.

Looks like a Honda-er color of my teal mist metallic.
