Well, i went out and bought 3 cans of regal red rustoleum spray paint. And here's the aftermath....

I also put some body filler on those rust holes i had on the rear qp.

Oh and the ups guy droped off my new drivers window motor.

I didn't like rocking the "I smacked a pole but got a new hood and bumper" look. After i get another coat on there and wet-sand it, it'll be looking even better. It'll work untill i have enough money for a real paint job.

Little bit different thing going on now. I'm doing some body filling on various parts of the car. I went to the hardware store and i thought i'd try the next shade darker red cause that "regal red" wasn't quite the right color. I got it home and tried it on a little dent i had filled and sanded.

I'll be damned if it isn't dead on. I might spray my whole car in this crap.

...at least it isn't flat black. I'm sick of 'sleepers'

Well, here's the after shot of the rusted qp. I could have sanded better.

I'm really proud of myself with the work i did on the trunk lid though. You can't really tell that there were 8 holes drilled for a big ass aluminum wing. There was a huge crack down the back of the lid too.

And here's the drivers dood that i still have to put some more putty on.
