So i bought chris's(dabeast's) del sol this wkend. when i got it, she looked like crap and needed work, but i had faith in myself to make it look good... well i started workin on it today and painted the hood, front bumper, and pass. side fender and partially got the dent fixed in it.

the day i brought it home...

and as it sets today with the unfinished bumper, hood and fenders

got the hood and top painted and cleared, i dont think they look too bad for being rattle canned...

Well...he's guaranteed to keep it until the cruise at least! That's why he's rushing to get it prettied up! :lol

I thought about doing that.... but trying to paint over rattle canning just doesn't sound like a good option to me
