American Icon has all the paint stuff. just buy a cheap spray gun a harbor freight and a moistier filter.

+1, you will never get the same consistency as a spray gun if you use a piece of shit $1.99 rattle can.

i would never consider using a can to do this paint job. im using a compressor and im doing primer/paint/cleacoat. i want it to look badass.

ronnie, cage and 5spd are on the list for sure. the car is just such an eye sore right now. i want to grind all the rust out, get new side skirts, the wing, a new lip and some flares first. the body is pretty good thank god. i hate bondo.

You need to bring that shit up here on wed. man.

When you get the paint and shit, and are ready to start the prepping, I'll help with the whole painting process.
