as of right now, yes the paint has some orange peel that they're gonna fix soon. i drove it some yesterday..... and may decide to just pay for the car on my own and not sell the truck for money for it..... but i'm not sure yet. i wouldnt really drive it ever if i kept it though |

Why would you put all that work into it just to sell it... you will never get your money back...
