Thanks guys!!!


We actually thought about doing matte. BASF has an additive for their clearcoats. However, I chrome/polished parts don't go well with a matte finish

Car looks awesome Jerry.... I advise you not to take it to work and leave it on your garage so that no A-hole backs into it nor anyone else mess with it ..... I hope I don't see another re-paint project in the next many many years even though they are awesome to see

Stopped by the shop this morning to drop off some parts and here are some pictures of the progress. Most of the car has been wetsanded down to 1500 grit and waiting to finish at 2000 grit and almost everything has been mocked on

Oh really? I think I did respond. Yea I hate the PM system which is why I have my Facebook linked on here.

Glad that you are satisfied with your purchase. Link to your build thread?
