So my wife picked up a MKIII supra a little while back and it was pretty much mint with the exception of the paint.The paint was done for.So we did a little bit off digital imaging and came up with these two made up photos.(not actual cars , its animated)

So after getting a few price quotes, we decided that getting her faded ass paint re-sprayed in pink would be out of our budget.So being that I do have some very basic autobody skill........we decided to rattle can it! The right way!(oxymoron)
So the car was sanded all around with 220 grit sandpaper.Miranda pickout the color at wal-mart autobody, and the base coat was applied and then the car wet sanded to hell...

Then I picked up some clear and sprayed the hell outta the car and waited a week and then wet sanded that to hell...and then buffed and buffed and buffed and came up with this....

nice paint! I also like how your MKIV's look, did you use spacers up front to offset the horrible stance they have normally?
