Ok send me your corners and $40 and I can do yours just like those. Those are not UK corners but clears that I tinted with my special mixture of paint and clear. I charge $40 including shipping back to you.

wait so your dad is giong to charge you $200 to paint your car? Or are you saying the paint is going to be $200?
Dont bother with $200 paint unless you plan on selling it soon. Paint is not cheap...well not good paint anyway. I did the black paint job I posted earlier with single stage paint because I am selling it...well actually sold it now. It still cost me about $150 for cheap SSU paint.
Heck even PPG's omni would be around $300 for BC/CC and that is really the only cheap paint I would consider on a car I will keep. That is not including any primer (good primer is not cheap btw).
I am just saying this now so you dont get sticker shock later on when you start pricing all the supplies you will need.

nope...but I finally started back on it the other day after not touching it for about a year (body work wise). I hope to finish the body work soon and will post up some progress pics along the way.
