you should splurge and get the clearcoat. it'll look 10X better.
Yea yea...but when you don't have the money, you cant splurge. Also, a nice paint job on an otherwise much worn auto doesnt make much sense. We plan on repainting it this summer - after a 5spd swap, wheels, brakes, and suspension. Even then, we might just redo some of the body work and still go with a flat paint job - but REAL black, and finish take longer sanding and whatnot - removing the rear vents, filling in the rest of the body lines, license plate lights, flush side markers, ect ect...

I know a couple guys with L20s in theirs, and they're pretty darn quick. Another has the ol' L16 in a pretty much stock car.

I wouldn't mind having one of these to flog around a track.
