Iv seen that guy int he red one that did it, but EH id almost rather have a dual rear exit like an SRT-4 then a solid rear with side exit. As long as theres 2 nice symetrical round tips out the back with NO fart cars itll look good. But i dont plan on going into that.

Sprayed silver, then orange candy in clear basecoat



Put Pin striping tape over the orange, sprayed metallic black



Removed tape

Then cleared light

appreciate it guys. Just washed it today 1st time since i recleared it, the black looks ****** mind blowing. I love the black, not that i dont like the orange but the black has so much depth and layers of pearl its just nuts. you walk around the car and its just shimmering at you. the orange is so much sicker too with the silver in it. Im super happy with it right now actually. Tomorow morning its getting pulled in the garage, and started to get wetsanded and buffed panel by panel throughout the week and weekend. Started the major flaw in the trunk today and got it mostly taken care of
