Wow, everyones car looks great! What does everyone think of mine? It has about 237,000 miles on it, and is still running strong. The car was originally blue, but the paint was in terrible condition. I didn't have the money to get a nice new paint job, so I sanded the car down and painted it flat black myself....with a brush. It cost me about $20 and took a few days to bondo some rust and put on two coats of paint. Sorry if my car offends anyone, but I'm as much a mercedes nut as the next person on these forums.

Of course! Since it's flat black, you can't see the brush strokes, it's a ton cheaper than spray paint, and you don't have to mask everything. I sanded (or am in the progress of sanding) down the paint afterwards, so there's no brush strokes.
