This car came out a whole lot better .its not 100% perfect but its nothing i cant get out of the paint with a little color sanding and buffing. I painted my 69 camaro in a booth and it was the same expirience just to give you an idea.
Thanks guys for the compliments.
One thing im debating on is wether to paint gloss stripes or semi gloss stripes. im torn in both ways. i like the gloss stripes for their clean look but like the semi gloss cuz ill be diffrent. .
Any ideas or coments?
Thanks for the insight.
For what it's worth I vote for semi gloss stripes.

satin or semi. if you dont like them, you can then buff them to a gloss.

Camaro looks great !!! I know this wasn't one of your choices but flat black on the stripes. Gives it a track car look............

Thank you guys. You guys have given me some good ideas and yeah i will most likely go with semi gloss or flat. I want to be diffrent. Also i know i have drag wheels and tires but this car will be an everything car. I will be getting diffrent wheels in the future, and will post pictures when the car comes along...... again thank you.......
