Red face Noob with pix
Ok, I am a total noob, but I have a custom paint job done on my Xmod. Please give your honest opinions. The pix are not that great but I tried to get the best angle and light so you can see the paint job clearly.

Holy crap, best paint job from a "noob" that I've seen. Just touch up on the windows a tad bit and you might give bondo a run for his money!!

Welcome to the fourm, have fun and read the rules.

I will take pix tomorrow during day light hours. The paint is the exact paint that goes on my car, via paint number on the car. It is left over paint that was mixed up for me for my car for touch-up paint.
Hope this is a better pix..I tried to use my flash, but it over exposed the pix.


Anyone know why the photobucket pix ate showing links only?

Yes, I did. I practiced on a plastic box for awhile. When I felt comfortable, I did it on the car.
