i like :]
paint looks better than mine, ahhaha, I have so many fine scratches and whatnot.
My accord had a wing like yours did when I got it, but I made the guy keep it when i bought it, it was so ugly.
But bad thing, He filled up the holes, but you can see where they were, and it looks like crap.

Your paint job looks great. Mind telling what paint/gun/materials you used? Maybe a quick explanation of the process.

You should black out the rest of the car and drive it like it is.

i had bought a paint gun at checker autoparts a couple of years ago, i checked their web site and they still sell them.

i hit the home depot for painters tape & paper and i bought 2 quarts of rustolium flat black and paint thinner(100% mineral spirits).

i painted one of the old fenders with a 2:1 mixture.
the paint layed down suprisingly well. i did find after 4 day's the paint was still soft. it's been two weeks and the paint seems solid now.

the lable said that you can use either mineral spirits or asitone to thin the paint. i bought a quart asitone mixed it at 2:1 with the paint sprayed another test fender. as a result the paint layed down as nice as the mineral spirits, but it cured faster. so that was what route i took to the car.

1 quart of asitone $9
2 quarts rustolium flat black $17
2 rolls 2" painters tape $11
2 rolls of making papper $10
$47

mix paint and asitone @ 2:1 mixture
IE: 16oz paint + 8oz asitone =24oz sprayable paint

for that price i couldn't ask for anything better.
i did price the jet black with the matted clear coat with all the other stuff need to mix it $495.00
