masking takes some time to do, and on my car when I did it it took a lot longer because we had little pieces of weather stripping that needed to be covered because none of my panels came off. Post some pictures as soon as you get it sprayed.
 
if your going to spray the car, spray it completely.

dont block off the tails and side louvers and what not.

paint it as it was to come off the showroom and BETTER.

but either way im sure it will look good.

but im picky, i dont want ANYONE to be able to tell my car was painted before.

thats just me.
 
Done deal.....Its Red for sure....tommorrow its getting buffed out....all i need to do is have a new front windshield installed this week..the old was looked like azz, full of chips and such...
Got some re-assy to do for sure...got about 1/2 done tonite...

Base coat...It really dont look Red...clearcoat is a lovely thing... :D
