Look at them putting that greasy box on the center console

I don't see the trunk lining or the door panels pulled. When open the car you will see the old white paint.

TuanLegend I'm not trying to be mean or cold hearted and I remember what it was like in High School but business should be kept that and not be personal.
understood and yes i was aware of this my class didnt have time to do the front and everything my teacher wanted the car to be shot on that day so time wasnt much of the essence

I don't doubt you but nobody will care about time contrasts or issues. People will just look at the product and judge you based on that. It's your car, not your friends, or your teacher and you gotta drive it everyday.

Sup bro. Glad to see another highschool student working on their SC! I have to agree with some people, but at the same time I will give you mad props for working on your car, and trying something new. Most people on this forum have years of expierence under their belts so things that beginners do are not up to par with their level. SO... coming from another highschool student, it looks pretty good, should've taped over the low beams and the antenna, but it will make it unique. Good luck and keep us posted!

That is Impressive, when I was in High School Auto Tech the biggest thing I did to my SC was recharge the A/C. Painting a car, especially by yourself, takes *****.

Looking good Z, love the people hatting just cause the way you paint your car, sure it's cutting corners but at least you are spending the time doing prep work.

That's awesome! It looks good so far and I do think it's pretty cool to see a high school kid painting their own car. I wish we had classes like that in college so I could paint my SC...

Keep up the good work!
