My $60 paintjob!!!
Hey guys just got done painting my corolla, I didnt really
overhaul it like a lot of people here but I think it came out ok.
Took 6 days of body work and like 2 hours painting =)
Let know what you guys think.
I started out by flaring all the fenders and then went to town on
all the rust I could find on the body.
PS this was my first time at bodywork.
And now in all it's rustolium goodness

Doesn't look bad at all!!

So did you do that with rattlecan paint or with a normal paint gun but just sourced some cheap paint somewhere?

Looks OK to me.. Nice job on the flares too. Would like to do the same thing to my car..Do you have any how-to pics or descriptions (for the flares)?

Doc,

I've seriously thought about going that route with the Volvo, but I'm not sure what paint to useSmile
