10 yard paint job............somebody give me a merit badge

Next door neighbour had a bang on the wing in his rover 25 so he bought a rather grim looking green wing from a car salvage yard.

 

After years of Biscuit based advice I don't think I've done a half bad job considering it was done in a shed with a rattle can!

Prob could have done with sanding down a bit more between coats but I'm always a bit nervous of just sanding the whole coat off!

That looks great, hopefully the colour match works out well when it's fitted.

 

Last picture shows it off best I feel.

 

I reckon it'll look a bollocks but I can't be blamed for that! It's the right paint but I reckon his paintwork has had a hard life!

No way! It was stressful enough being responsible for a 2nd hand green wing!
