Default My new green paint job (6m2)

Hey guys, since i dont see that many new threads i figured id toss in a pic of my sc that i bought off a fellow member on here a while ago (Ekrebs to be exact) I just got it painted since the paint has been in rough condition since i bought it.

only thing im kinda mad about is i didnt notice 2-3 dents it had (pin head size dents) before i brought it in for estimate

Also for some added fun lets guess how much i payed for the whole job.

yeah, i was waiting for the headlight comment. They should look great since the inside are already blacked out.

comon jadu lets see your guess! its a guessing game damnit!! lol

yeah its alot of flake, I actually like it like that. Its VERY shiny in the light but everyone starts to comment on my nice "black" paint job when its not in direct sunlight.

Very nice paint. I'm assuming you or someone you know painted it for you.. so you got a hook up for 600
