Cool The New Improved Fox

...well, cosmetically anyway.

Got a cheap "temporary" paint job about 2 weeks ago as a present from a friend who kept pushing me to get my car painted. Well here it is. Heh, heh. Looks good adn actually came out much better than I expected.

I went with white,

---most of the car was already white (I was like "hey man, I just want it all white, that's all I want").
---very hard to see defects (cracking or rough spots) with white paint, ESPECIALLY in bright daylight.
--partially inspired by Rick91GT's car.

They also put in a black headliner for me--nice, but now the car sounds hollow inside if you talk loud. who cares though.

To tell the truth, I had never b4 considered white as an option for a permanent paint job, but I guess it's on the list now. I'm really starting to like white alot.

Well, I wouldn't tell you guys and not show photos so here they are.
