SWEET RIDE! & I don't think you have a paint problem, the first thing I thought of when I saw that pic in the gallery is that your camera is probably picking up frost on the vehicle in the early morning or late evening hours...was it cold out when you took that pic, or was there frost on the vechicle? Just my thoughts...ENJOY YOUR RIDE!!!

Looks good! That pinstripe will really help finish it off.

Q: Why did you remove the engine when you reskinned the front end?

I think that's a motor in there! Either that out the air filter housing is floating in the engine compartment!

Yes it was cold but i dont think it was frost, just a glitch or something on the pic. The engine on the floor was out of a saturn wagon i was working on. It was more than just a reskin, I cut the front clip off and replace from the firewall forward. And the color is really orange when you see it in real life. I think the color on my camera is alittle off or something. Thanks for the compliments.

Looks better after the accident then before. It is great to get something good from something bad. Unfortunately, I can't think of anything to get my body shop to do to improve my car from my hit. And I hate to have wasted 2weeks without my car, then get it back and have it the same as it was before. (Except without the little dings on the passanger side, and hopefully removed on the drivers side as well.)

If they could only paint REAL flames in place of the vinyl They have someone that is fantastic-one of the trucks he recenly did is on the cover of some magazine. Sadly, he is not inexpensive.
