Here she is!

My first fade and flame attempts...

The bleeding came from the first coat, and it ruined pretty much everything. I mustve sprayed too much and it SPREAD everywhere. I got most of the bleed marks off by using q-tips and Goo Gone (Thank God for Goo Gone). It looks awesome in person and I am really happy with the way it looks. I also painted the wing on the wrong side the first time but, i painted it on the other side as well. I like how it looks because you can see the line continuing to the back. The decals really brought it to life. Tell me what ya think

I'd like to thank Diver for the AWESOME new cutting technique! It came in reeeaally handy, especially for the wheel whells

O ya, this is my fifth paintjob i think, so theres plenty of time for improvement My new project is a Cadillac CTS-v for christmas. (a present from me to me lol).

Eric, it's pretty good for your first attempts. you're very welcome for the cutting tips. One thing I need to add, cut out the rear window. Use your circle cutter and score out 2 holes (2" each) pop them out and connect the highepoints on the top and bottom of the circles. You'll wind up with an oval cut. It'll help with the cooling as well as getting air to that filter. IF you don't want to do 2 holes, at least do one directly in line with the airfilter. Others use a reamer and make it look like swiss cheese in the rear window or just put 2 holes in the rear window. It's up to you, I just prefer the oval cut.

Good job!
