SS/TC...with some new paint!

A buddy of mine owns and operates a body shop. I had a little extra money and he had an idea and this is what we came up with.







Someone feel free to make them bigger if you want, I suck with computers.

i like the scheme, but you should have done the whole trunk, not just the top.

I like it. Yeah, I think the whole trunk would of looked a little better. Save up some more and do the whole car. That would look awesome.

whole car would be pretty sick. I might do the whole trunk at one point but that's what most people would have done, I like to be different. Who knows.

Paint technique. He did my hood first, it was his first time doing something like this, took him three tries lol. Roof and trunk were perfect the first try, he's a quick learner.

Wow. That looks pretty awesome. I like the trunk the way it is now but I think it would look cooler if you left the top white and made it carbon fiber from tail light to tail light.

Either way, it looks good.

Thanks. I wish I had a better camera and could get a shot with the sun shining on it, it's pretty crazy.

+10 for originality and actually getting it painted.

-9 for not doing the whole trunk.....

Leaves you with 1 more chance to do it right next time.

To bad you didn't say this last weekend. I was in Charleston, but now I'm in Pittsburgh.

Have you thought about removing the spoiler?

Thought about the whole trunk but like I said, everyone would of done that. Plus, he wanted to just do the top and for his price.....I wasn't arguing . Cam, I saw it without the spoiler when he was painting, I think it looks better with it.
