I finally completed painting the Supra. I never tried painting a car before, and I ran into a few problems along the way while learning, but overall it turned out pretty well. I had discovered this spring that both my fenders had rotted out at the bottom, and I had a rust area over the pass side wheelwell, that ended up being a hole when I fixed it. So I got a couple fenders from Tubbie (thanks again!) and got to work. Here's a few pix. Its not perfect...there's a couple small runs in the clear I need to cut out/sand/buff, and there's some dust in the paint, but not a lot. The original paint had been touched up on the front bumper because the dude ran over his toolbox, so I had wanted to paint the car from the day I bought it even before the fender problem. The quater panel was bubbled under the paint when I bought it.
Let me know what you think! (don't laugh at the antenna, it's coming off. I just need to yank it outta there so I didn't bother covering it)
