props, that' a ton of work for people who don't do it for a living, a LOT goes into painting a car and making it presentable and I don't think people realize it whenever they see them driving down the road. You also picked one of the hardest colors to get right, black will show EVERYTHING, I've seen guys with all black cars get best paint at car shows just due to the difficulty level involved over dudes with tons of grahpics etc. as the graphics hide flaws. On the plus side, it looks like you did some pretty solid bodywork, paint's easier to change than re-doing that
