Looks good. The next paint job I attempt will definitely be base/clear not single stage and then clear on top.

Thanks! I'll take 4 for it so I can get my Harley back on the road. Lol. Yes the car has Eibach springs, and it rides amazing on them.

And for the record, the wheels are a pain to refinish. If you don't have an airbrush forget it. It is nearly impossible to not have light spots.

I thought painting my wheels would be easy since there's so much less surface area than the body...but I quickly found out the 3D surfaces makes them tough. I did it with the normal gun though, a smaller "touch-up" gun might have been better.

Yeah, I did it with the normal gun on the first one. Quickly switched to my airbrush to lay into the crevices on the outer rim. It went way better since I coupe have the gun in pretty much any orientation.

I also didn't blast the wheels before i sprayed them, but they turned out well. It's deffinitly an easy pass for a 20 year old car lol.

Now this is how I would want my Beretta to look. Awsome looking Beretta. It sucks that neighboors complain about having your cars there. Where I live I can do what ever I want (well not everything) inside my property as long as I keep it in my property.
