So I'm thinking about primering my car black in the next few weeks. I'm not much of a painter, and I'd like it to turn out nice, so I was looking to see if anyone would be down to give me a hand with primering. Chipoltle burrito included. cheers

You have primering experience though? I'd like it to look as good as a rattle-can paintjob can.

rattle cans almost always look bad.. find some one with a gun, prep it yourself/ have some one help you sand it a friend or whoever is free, buy the primer you want and make some one an offer.. a person not an actual shop shouldnt be too expensive at all

For sure Matt. I know it's a rare color, but I mean the paint is in rough condition. After the winter it'll be worse. Oxidation has started, chips all around, and black primered coupes are badass.

werd primer is lame, all you need to do is give it a good wash and wax. the paint will look so much better. shit. my mr2 when i first got it was pink. yes thats right...pink! after i waxed her she was red again. hell my s13 was faded as fuck when i first got it. again waxed it and it looked almost like new...aside from the rust lol

heres a comparison with my s13 from when i first got it to a few weeks before i sold it...

Alright, I'll wax it up and wash before I make a decision. Maybe I'll like it more lowered on the coils.
