If you want to fix that passenger side inner fender I have one I can cut up and send you. Just pay shipping.
 
I Got It In Primer Over The Week End I Was Hoping To Get It Painted This Week But My Painter Backed Out On Me. I Went To Two Body Shops By Me And Showed Them Photos Of The Car And One Said $400.00 To $500.00 And One Said $500.00 That Just Seams Like A Lot To For A Engine Bay Painted Black. Ed

i was lucky to have a freind that is a painter, if you have a comperser see if they can come to your house and spary it?looks nice so far .als
 
Where do ya live Ed? If ya post that info in your avatar then if someone is close by they will help at the drop of a hat. Bring it over with the paint and i'll shoot it for beer. Beat that. Now, where you located? $400-$500 for the engine bay is nuts for a 30 minute job and that includes clean up. You do the masking off.

what is single stage paint going to paint my engine bay and the shop said this is what he will use he said there is no clear that is used with this process. Is this a good way of painting this it will be black. what do think is fair price for this .THKS ED
 
I would just get an hvlp/turbofan setup and spray it myself for less than $200 with materials included.
