People who talk about "asian muscle cars" deserve to be kicked in the shins.

I plan on giving my beater a two tone paint job....ill post pics when i do that, but right now im going to practice on my hood where its just basically primered.

here's pics of my cousins car i sprayed with an HVLP Gun a couple of weeks ago, I used High Gloss White Marine Paint.






^i don't have any after shots from when the paint was buffed, but it looks like an oem finish. the bumper is a scrap bumper, so thats why the grill was painted, the engine bay was later painted in that car, no updated shots though.

here are pics of my k24 hatch i'm currently working on:
