no bro those are way to advanced for me right now, and require a lot of detail and airbrushing.

today I did quite a lot, changed my brakes all around and my front brake lines going into the caliper since they were damaged, did get to sand down the wing, and fenders again since i got a run in one of them. im almost ready to put primer down in the dents except for two, this weekend if weather is nice i should be painting the wing, doors, hatch, fenders, and jamb the hood.

i took some pics of the work i did today will post up later

yes she will be straighter than factory when shes done, i thought about a more outrageous paint scheme but ill save that for something else. and to possibly help your decision, you can NEVER go wrong with black, and it matches anything.
