It definatley looks good! Personally, i'd never do a complete color change on a car ever again, lol. I'm a painter and completely painted my last car from red to sonic blue and a week later it was totaled. But on top of that, it's just too much work. I wouldn't even pay the money to do it, lol. Now, i'll paint things on a car but never a whole entire color change. Wayyyyy too much work, for what it's worth. Don't get me wrong I love the red! It looks awesome! But if it were my car I would of left it white and threw some blue stripes on there. Love the red and black stripes also though. Are you painting it yourself?

Getting painted at the dealership.
They quoted me 54 hours labor. They already have 80 hours on it and they are figuring another 16- 20. Tell me they are losing their shirt on it. I said i am sure you have enough money to buy more shirts.

Car has red and black interior. I have wanted the red for years now. But you are right , it is a lot of work.
