So I will be investing in a nice paint booth and stock all the lancer colors with only the best paint brands and materials !

nicee
lookin friggin awesome man......... what material is the kit, and are there diferences for sanding different materials?........ looking at the new accolade kits makes me wish i never ordered mine when the apex 2 kit came out........ i paid like just under a grand for a crappy fiberglass kit that cracked like 6 times ........ now im seelin the damn thing.......... sorry to get off topic.......... i cant wait to see the pics of this on your car....... good luck and good job so far...... to my eyes atleast 
The new material is PFRP. Fiberglass coated with fine polymers to make it less likely to crack and ****. It's pretty damn good material. I accidentally dropped the rear bumper on the floor from shoulder height and it didnt sustain any damage. Also PFRP is very easy to sand, which is a plus.

Well I originally used rattlecan primer. But it turned out horrible (all the imperfections were showing). So i got some high build primer in a can that is made to shoot out of a spraygun. I used that and it worked like a charm.
That may be cool

~! I think my paint job was ok, but it could've been better. Wish Kareem was here in the Midwest. Will there be a possibility of having kits painted/shipped to our doors? Cuz that would be bad ***!
