Default Request: 94 LS400 in SGM (pictures added)

Hey photoshop guru's, my car is going to the body shop on Monday.. and I've decided to paint it Smoky Granite Mica. (It is currently silver)... but I thought I'd ask for a photoshop request first! I'll post some pictures of my car tomorrow when its day outside but any pictures will do (my exterior is stock).

THanks in advance!

Yeah I'm going to get all visible silver painted. So bits of the engine bay, the hood, the trunk, door jams, etc.

Its going to cost around $4K give or take.

Doing a color change is a bit more difficult for me than a simple drop and chop with wheels. When I get a little more free time I'll try to tackle this...maybe some time tonight
