looks great in person, i personally did not want to take my dslr into a misty paint booth hence the cellphone pics. And looks better than it could ever look on any kind of Audi.

I really should have set the Go Pro up in the corner and had it take pics every 5 minutes, that would have been awesome.

Any issues with humidity and the wet floor? Looks good.

What guns did you use? I just ordered an Iwata LPH400 for clear....hoping to try it out tonight. For base I'm been using a Devilbliss starting line gun with either a 1.3 or 1.5 tip.

Out of curiosity, are the quarter panels on a firebird the same as a camaro? I have been thinking about a 98+ trans am bumper for the back of my 98' camaro. It looks like I could cut it for the tail lights and be in business.

you know i'm not 100% sure but I don't think so. As far as the gun, who knows, my father has had that equipment since the 80s at least, but they actually made stuff that lasted back then and the guns work and push out some good paint jobs. I'll ask my dad, but I doubt you can buy those anymore lol.

It hadn't rained in a couple of weeks near our house, so humidity levels were pretty low. It actually felt pleasant out the past couple days and not like we were inside someones gym shorts. So the heat worked perfect and the wet floors did their job of keeping the dirt down.
