My SA got a painjob ...56k, LOL!
Yeah, I like it. It's kinda purple if you get it in the right light-but for the most part to me it looks blue (im color blind so I like it no matter what! lol!) Sorry for the big pics, but I think it helps show the quality of the paint. They are 50% original size anyway. Tell me what you guys think!

He has yet to paint the bumpers, and he says hes going to do the hood and rear quarter panel again (perfectionist, but I appreciate this quality) But hopefully it will be back on the road by next weekend! Thanks for the complement

Just thinking of that pisses me off...I could have bought a V1 or ...roll bar, or maybe a new set of wheels. But instead I had to pay for somones $450 mistake. Oh well, now I'm just going to be paranoid with the new paintjob lol

That looks great. Very nice colour for an SA. My 7 has similar damage to that. Problem is, it was further back and shattered the tail light. My " friend" backed into it with his 80 Camaro (aka the tank). I actually just collected some of the money he owed me from it last night. He agreed to pay me $300, and that was about a year and a half ago.

Thanks guys, being color blind doesn't really bother me- but I've never seen color so I don't have anything to miss haha, the color is Estoril Blue Metallic, and I picked it because I saw it on a BMW M Roadster and I thought it looked good. Aws140, man, I'm sorry you dont like it - I thought I was getting a close to the original color but it turned out to be a little darker and different. I'm still happy though-as I said- I cant tell!! lol, it could be pink and I would still be exstatic! lol. We gotta go hit up some roads whenever your widebody project is done though!

It looks like your money was well spent. The amount of trim he took off looks like he knows his way around a seven and/or knows how to paint a car. For someone to admit inferior work and redo it would give me a woody. If it was anywhere else and you challanged them on the quality of work they would take that path of least resistance and discount the cost of service.
