Pics of the "Rustoleum Rocket", roll on paint finished!

[Flavadave4]

This was intended to be a temporary paint job and thats what it is. Had we removed all trim/handles I could see this coming out even nicer. We are pretty happy with the results.

We got a little over zelous with the 3M Window weld, that stuff was oozing out of the sides of the trim all over, have to mess with it later!

wow, hell of a transformation. cant wait to see it in person!

You say temporary, but I would rock that thing until the paint started falling off. That looks great and I would be completely satisfied with it. Leave the $7000 paint jobs to the trailer queens.

Haha, thanks! If you nit pick it in person there are flaws, but for what it is and what it cost it was more than worth it. I love the color we ended up with.

If it looks as good in person as it does in the pics you did great. Huge fan of the low buck DIY paint job. Did mine in my garage with a borrowed compressor a $75 LVLP paint gun and 200 bux in paint.
You should be totally pleased with how that came out.

how do the molding look up close? how did you get the ones off the doors without ruining them?

A majority of the mouldings were left on, I just taped them off and painted them with semi-flat black. The one's on the doors are a pain in the butt, we left the passengers side on the car and the drivers side was off when I bought the car.

To me that just looks like nice condition factory paint, aside from the funky color. I like it though. Great job.

Yeah, it's a freaking $100 paint job to get him by till he's got the cash to make it perfect; you an I both know what to expect from this. That being said I think it cam out great for what it is.
