Hey guys, what's up?

This is my first time actually painting anything, but I loved my Corvette so much, I just had to paint. I don't have too much money for paint kits and what not (Due to other expenses) and it may sound funny, but i actually used black nail polish on my car (Two coatings. I used to paint my nails and believe it or not, I can actually do it better than most of girls I've met). I didn't do anything to the body kit I threw on, but I also decided to switch the lights around as well. Since the head lights placed in the back still come out red, I decided to place the rear lights in the front (since they were red, i figured it gave my car a nice look).

I'd just like some feed back, because Xmods has become a new addiction for me and I don't really know anyone else in my area that is interested in them aside from my sister and her boyfriend.

Thanks. Sadly I have poor lighting in my house and my flash makes it too bright for anyone to see.

Once I take it outside I'll get some better pictures of it.

mmhmm. Next time I'm going to do a fancy photoshoot, I'm going to use the stairs on my porch. I'll place a paper in the background to make it the BG smooth looking :)

Can't wait to see yours new pics

Actually, I used to fall into neither of those categories. I just had my own style, and I happened to like painting my nails all sorts of funky colors.

But to answer the questions I am a guy. I should have some new pictures up today or tomorrow since I will be taking them later.

Interesting looking, but I would have sprayed the entire thing Jet Black with a few splashes of color in the form of custom vinyl.

It looks cool
hope you post new pics to check the paint job with more detail.
and about being alone, we are not the only ones buying the kits.
come out, come out, all xmoders, wherever you are.
