in paint $200ish in paint & supplies. and has 3 layers of paint and 3 layers of clear coat, although we still gotta buff the clear.

and i'm giving my friend $300 at least for helping me shoot it and do the bodywork and he's helped me before to work on the car so i think he deserves at least that.

so $500-$550 for a decent paint job...not bad i'd say. better than earl schieb, or maaco, they just spray it for that price without doing bodywork

parts of the grill need to be black and you need different wheels to really set off the car but it looks awesome bro, those two things will set the car off

ONLY couches pull out!!!!
the front and rear grills need to be flat black.

other than that it looks great

looks real good man! what kind of paint did you use? When I did a dupont base coat clear coat with sand paper and primer and masking paper and everything I had nearly 1000 in it.. and my dad manages a napa so thats 5% above cost..

thanks yeah, REALLY DIY indeed.

and we used a house of colors type paint place (they mixed it to GY16P midori green pearl) it looks legit to me)

and yeah the front and back grills are gonna be black...idk if i should do Gloss black or Flat black though

probably gloss..
