Default New Paint

Hey guys,
Just an update on my Blazer! I got it painted last week, and its all color sanded. Ready to be buffed and then reassembled. What do you guys think?

Colors are Dark Grey Metallic and a Burnt Orange Pearl (although it looks red and black!)





It's by no means the straightest Blazer known to man but for my first project and tackling it with little experience I think it's turning out pretty well!

I'll get more pictures up when it's all back together

Here's an update!



Finished it in early May, wish the grey was a little lighter but for my first paint job I can't complain!

Love the color combo but why are the front wheels so far to the rear?

Looks awesome and @Lewhite, looks like the wheels are turned slightly to the right.
