I just need some money to get it, start my new job monday. They probobly dont carry magnaflow or borla at the muffler shop, but even if he has a knockoff or something, thats cool with me. He holds it up to the car so you can decide what one you like, hes a cool guy

Just gazed through your whole thread.

Awesome work man. Awesome.

I was going to do my brake calipers an orange color but now I don't want to cause I'll feel like I am stealing your idea.

Oh, and BTW, I have 2 questions. One more so a joke just picking for fun.

1) why didn't you remove the upper grille when you painted?
2) ever heard of tire shine?



Props to ya though.

What do you mean remove the upper grill? I removed all the grills when I painted. I removed every single thing on this car that needed to get painted seperately and everything that needed to get painted on the car got painted on the car


And I used tire shine in the most recent pics of the car show, but its not tire wet, it just makes the tires look black and not shiney. I have the other kind too just havent used it in awhile. It usually slings all over the car so i have to find a new brand

Only one with Candy orange calipers
But I havent seen orange calipers on this forum yet but im sure one of the sunburst guys has it

whats wrong with my grill? its all gloss black with silver pearl in it. Plus its the Stock SS/TC Mesh Style. I like the silver outline you did on yours Onecoldbizl, but I like mine just the way it is.

:-P! lol i never really thought about the grill all that much, but in all honesty i wouldnt have candied it because it would be sitting right up against the paint. If they didnt match it would **** me off. Black is the easier way to go on something like that
