Was this your first time painting a car? Was it done in a booth? I want to paint mine myself but Ive never painted a car before and wasnt sure how it would turn out with no paint booth in my garage. Car looks awesome.

thanks guys,
John, this is not my first paint job, this is the 6th vehicle i have painted. Iam definately still a beginner though and have only been at it for about 3 years now. I did not paint this car in a booth, actually I sprayed it in a garage (see the first pics). It was probably the worst environment i have sprayed in. All i did was sweep it out and put a fan in the garage opening. I dont recommend this, but it is possible to get a good result without a booth.
