    So pretty much one coat and/or a half. Make sure you put on a good coat of clearcoat.

    It does matter. If you stripped the old paint properly, the new paint will adhere better. You said there were black spots which is probably grease and grime. Paint wont adhere to that and sooner or later all the paint will chip and flake off. You should seriously strip them down to metal and then paint. Also use some metal putty of some sorts and fill in the curb rashes.

    Hes already painted them...with one coat.

    Jordan, you will most likely be repainting them not too far in the future.

    Why do you need someone else to roll your fenders for you? I did mine myself in 30 minutes with a baseball bat.

    It looks nice. You just need to shave the side moldings and lose the student driver decal. :D

    Damn, your car is looking real clean. If you don't mind saying where did you get that kit and that wing? It accents the car nicely. I know you said you were riding on Tein S springs, what are you using in terms of struts?
