Rustoleum is the best, but i dont care wo you talk to cheap paint never works. even dollar cans for taggin, never lasts. i can do clean pieces without using that euro shit for $8 a can, fuck that!

    nice updates, cant wait to see more progress!

    Werd on that. For a while when was adding arrows everywhere and thought random addons were "SUOOPER HELLUH DOYPE" I would buy expensive shit, and... my stuff still sucked dick. fact is put in a few years of hard ass work building structure, and it does not matter what you use. 1 doller paint is total shit though I agree. Valspar Satin all day.

    but anyways. about the car, I fucking love it, aiming to get my EF similar as far as wheel choice and over all loawness.

Its your car and you should do what you want, which is clearly what your doing. so keep it up.. and the graffiti is sick.
    thanks i know some days i just take it better then others haha you have an opinion and give good examples of how stuff could be fixed or made better not just saying it sucks or is a p.os. haha
