Looks great in the photos Bob, can't see any orange peel. Has a great shine. Beautiful red.

Man that's a pretty red. Zooming in I can see the  orange peel but I sure think with some compounding and polishing it will be fine. 

Suggestions guys?

Thanks Buddy.  I'm not really worried about the orange peel, it's the scratches that I won't be able to get out.

Ok fellows.  I waited 3 hrs and I shot another coat of the Clear Red on the body.  This really made a big change.  I'm a happy camper now.

The candy color gives the paint color a lot of depth.

Thanks Rusty.  I'm dreading the foil.

Can't go wrong with red! I like the coil overs you came up with. Nicely done

I got the body polished out this morning and it's looking pretty good.  Also did a little mock up to make sure everything is still fitting ok.  Wishing now the front end was a little lower but it's ok and has a little rack to it.

Looks great and I think it sits right.
