    Yeah. I really don't have any money right now, to pay for a serious paint job... I just want to do it flat black for now, and maybe add some flat red lines in the future... Not sure what is going to happen, though. :) I still have a lot of pretty serious dents to remove, like the one behind the passenger door, and one under my drivers side tail light... Looks pretty deep though... The whole bottom under the lens is mashed in... Really looks bad, but I might be able to straighten it out...

    I was looking around at rat rod sites, and I came up with kustom flatz. It's a two part paint. It has a urthane, and the paint. Still pretty expensive though... You basically use 5 parts paint, 1 part sealer... It's pretty sick... That's one way to go with it. If I could seal the body, then hit it with a primer, or get a mix of both for less than that kit, I would totally do that also... I don't know what to do... So lost! lol

    Well, I was curious what the car would look like in flat black. So I tossed the idea around in photoshop for a few days, and decided today to actually try it out... This is what I came up with:

    Not too bad, eh? I think it's going to be a beast when I actually paint it up, IRL! Thoughts, reasons I shouldn't go ahead and do this? I have flat black in a krylon can, that I got from walmart, some time back... It's actually made for camo, and other things... I'm wondering if this is what I was thinking about, this whole time, and just forgot about it...

    The paint is actually krylon ultra flat camo paint. Looks like it might fit the bill. :D

    Yeah. I think it might look sick! I sprayed a computer panel on a project case, and it looked sick! I really like it. I can't wait to get the dents out, and start spraying it! It should come out great! :D This paint is so easy to spray, and it looks good if prepared right! :)
