Jimmy has been working on my brother in laws Dakota for over a year now... not sure if he's finished yet or not, but damn.

Looks good either way from what I saw in pics, but I hope he's quicker with paint work.

He's not. He has had my wifes car for almost 4 months. But I rather him take his time and do a perfect job, instead of rushing him.

Indeed thats what he told my brother in law. I wasn't ******* him or nothing, he painted a golf cart for us and it turned out pretty sick. He's done a few other side jobs and they are perfect.

I'm just way impatient, and would almost settle for a SO-SO job quickly rather than a legit job and wait.

i used to work for a car wrap company. there is no downside of the vinyl.

looks sharp, colors are fantastic, if you choose the right material the finish is glossy and good.

good luck to do something like these with airbrush:

wonder how many weeks would be a job like this if you go with airbrush and probably the paintjob would cost more than your actual car.
