2004-2011?
nice color!
I can appreciate the work you've done. It takes alot of sweat, blood, money, diligence, and time to accomplish a project like this!
Here are the finished pictures!! :-)
I applied 2 good layers of Primer (2 cans), then 3 layers of the Metallic Burnt Orange spray paint (2 cans) and then used 1 and a half cans of clear.
I took lots of pictures:
I now need help... I need to figure out what to do next ... I think it's paint the brake lines black but I feel lost at what to do after that...

ghetto: I applied 2 good coats of Primer (2 cans), then 3 coats of the Metallic Burnt Orange spray paint (2 cans) and then used 1 and a half cans of clear (it was 2-3 coats).
I'm definitly going black on the brake lines I'm thinking the brake booster should be black as well.
And yes the whole job was done with "spray cans" or "rattle cans" or "spray bombs" whatever you wanna call them.... Truth is there are a few blemishes all but one will be covered by engine components.
I got alot of direction and help from my friend Bob. Thanks Bob.

Nice and shiny!
Looks amazing with rattle cans!
Sorry to tall You this, but you sud have paint lines first, now you'll need allot more masking to do, to preserve that orange. Well and I think it would be nice if you go with a theme. Silver & Orange, you have cross member in Silver already, stick with it.
And yes, like A18A said, paint whole car, because there is nothing in the way to paint it on the inside at the moment.
Althou looks great, no AWESOME!!!

I'm using a brush to paint the Brake lines (so little to no masking will be required) and Black silver and orange is my theme. Thanks for your suggestion however.
ghetto: I just used the cans... no attachments as i would have lost lots of maneuverability.
