So came back from the paint booth had a bad day! my other vertex fender had stress cracks every where so now it looks like im going to have to do some more body work to it! pretty bummed out it I was hoping to get my whole front end on this weekend.
look closely and see for yourself.

but i didnt let that get me down so i finally after 2 years of having it sprayed my 97 front!!!!

and also my shine side skirts.

and here are the new hids.

i have a custom pearl in the paint using the 051 base coat for all you guys that want to know the color here is a closer shot.

Cl i will have a big suprise to come as to what front lip will be on this hope this can benifit the whole community.
