If I go with a white Primer, I'd honestly just paint the whole car white. :shrug: It would look good, and white's the easiest to do... So people say. Still, I think I want to give the black primer a chance, but thanks for the tip on the sealer!

Nice to see a little progress on both cars! :)
With regards to the cheap paintjob, go a blue primer!! Be different! We've all seen primer red, primer black and primer white MX-3s, but no primer blue...? Plus, you know you love blue ;)
No pressure or anything, though :lol: 8)

Surprisingly enough, there actually has been a bit of progress! Slight, but it's there...

Blue primer, like this?:

I can't say it speaks to me. :lol:

Idk, It took me a while to warm up to ANY primer paint job, but seeing Mark's car enough times has shown me it can still look damn clean. You just need to take your time with the job.

Nice!

I would recommend going into a paint supply store and seeing what they have, you would be surprised at how many colors of primer you can get.

Not a bad idea, at this point I'll be happy just to have the car match everywhere... The black/blue/pealing faded blue thing is getting old quickly. I'll be painting my other car "properly" when I can. Until then, it's getting a shiny new buff and wax for the upcoming meet.

I'm coming, if I have to sell a kidney to make it. :twisted:

I honestly can't wait to start messing with the Primer and all that. It'll be interesting to see what all I can do... I want to play with some of my extra body panels so far, like my fubar'd door on my '92. I have a minty one to swap out, so It's a play thing. :lol:

Nope, but I found a new girlfriend... :lol: Fun-money is now divided into 2 categories. :wink:

I did snag a bunch of parts for my '92 though, and I paid off 90% of my credit card debt in one fell swoop. That felt pretty good, not gonna lie... :D

Thank you both! I needed it too, I let things pile up... I had a payday just big enough to pay most of it off, and play a little on the side. Bills were paid first, of course :)

As for the ex, I have a 'no second chances' policy for cheaters.
