quite a project you got on your hands

woo hoo! theres my old hood :)

glad to see its being put to good use!

is that trav-e2.0 old body kit.

yupps! That it is. Money started getting really tight for me and my fam so I had to part with it =(. I've been very much out of the loop of things due to such.

Julio...Starting to look good brother! Glad to see my kit went to a good home! Can't wait to see the final product [thumb]

do you still have your focus?

Yeah, but right now shes kinda on hiadus due to no funds. I have been messing around the trails near here and have been thinking of going a new route with her. Theres just something surreal about doing 70 in the dirt [:D]

wait, is that all done with a rattle can?

Impressed if done with a paint gun DIY in the garage, even more impressed if its being done with a rattle can.....have I been bested?

worked too hard on this & I don't want to ruin it... lol

Thats quite a unique and very colorfull paint scheme. Reminds me of a RALLY focus. Nice job!

yes how can you tell?, found it cheaper than to buy 5 pints of different colors, reducer and thinner lol
came out damn good too (for rattle cans) lol.
Question is can i use clear on this or will it wrinkle? I will shoot the clear with a spray gun..

You can, but you have to be very carefull about this. Hopefully you used all of one brand and type of paint. If, call them and ask what air spray application clear coats will not brak down your base coat, if there are any. Also, ask them about the re-coat window, as the timing of the clear coat application will affect its reaction with the base coat.

its all done [thumb]

Pics?
