Default Almost paint time, prep pics

Got the car primered yesterday. I put on the rear valance and got about 90% of the dents out. It still needs a little love before i sand it down and go for paint in a couple months. And i know some people hate the look of this but hey, looks good enough for me to rock a couple months(better then red fenders) Anyways, you can still see a little where the bondo is beneath the primer coat. But here it is of 8-29-10






Car will be either darkish forest metallic green with gold flakes or dark bloody red metallic with gold flake.

PS: New crappy camera, i havent set the date right
