If there is ever a turning point during a project car build, it has to be the actual painting process. This is the part of the project that when finished, makes all of the cuts and bruises, and hard work all worthwhile. It can also be the biggest headache you could ever experience, especially if you tried to cut corners, but the headache is avoidable.
