CHEAP paint!
I want to let them know what a crappy job they did when it comes to paint . I went on a long trip and taped the whole front of the car to "protect" the paint. When i got back, i took the tape off WITH the paint .

blue tape is supposed to be able to easy release. green is for hard to stick surfaces

edjosh23 will become famous soon enough
My problem with the paint is that they didn't spray enough coats on. It chips too easily. I have quite a bit of paint chipped off the hood of my car.
