I feel like paint is just something you shouldn't try yourself unless your skilled at it...too expensive to make a mistake and turn out all shitty

I painted my S14 in a booth with an Iwata gun. It's a lot easier than you think. Honestly, if you can move your arms left and right, you can paint a car.

Painting is very simple. Also any mistake can be fixed with some sanding (unless you're doing a matte paint).

The interior is fully gutted and the cage is going in within the next few months.

Go-fast mods?...I just did a few simple bolt-ons
