Well as you all know if you remember I had sent my car to paint and well I just got around to getting some pics to post up. So here it is

I also put some of those simulated HIDs in there and they actually look pretty kewl. PLUS! I ordered these that just got here today and I will attempt to install tomorrow Tell me what you think?

Looks good, now get some pics of it dry. lol

And whats simulated HID? The blue bulbs? You can get REAL HID for like $130.

wasn't this the MAACO paint job? I agree let's see some dry pics of it. It looks pretty damn good though! You might be able to change my opinion of MAACO

The bulbs where 20 bucks and much better than those stupid cool blues. lol. And yes this is the maaco paint job. And again your right I need dry pics but I have not been able to wash it since I got it back damn water restrics. lol. So I was waiting to put my bumper inserts in again and the fogs to have it washed and get some good clean pics of it.

Oh, so you got some SilverStar bulbs? Thats what I have. But with my lights being smoked so dark, I need real HID.

No not really. I got some bulbs a little blueishwhiter than that. Eurodezigns i believe is how its written. "8500k" bulbs supposedly. dont believe it but better than anything at advance. Now I cant wait a little more time so I can buy myself some pollished aluminum cobra wheels with pony centercaps . Then I will need to have to find the right drivers chair for my car so I can get the interior reapolstered.

 

[The Green GT]

Get some summit seats. I was going to get my seats redone, till I found out it was $800 for the MATERIAL for JUST the front.

And the Summit Seats are awesome.

 

[GTA_V6_Mustang]

Do you have a picture of them installed?

 

[Nik_95Cobra]

Looks like there's a suprisingly damn good maaco job hiding under all that water.

 

[GTA_V6_Mustang]

Ok here are some pics after a gas station car wash, and with the new fogs in. I love the fogs. Now I will try to get some pictures up of the fogs and headlights on at night

 

[stprorolla49]

WOW, looks awesome man! This has definately swayed my judgement of Maaco...awesome job! Good luck with it, i remember right when i got my car painted it was the best feeling

 

[GTA_V6_Mustang]

What a difference those fogs make at night. Its rediculous. I can actually see when they are on and off and they light everything on the ground in front of me. And pretty brightly lit. It looks awesome. Now I just need to do something about those damn wheels.... lol

It's not surprising that the Maaco job looks good now since they usually do at first. However, what typically is their downfall is that as early as a year later they go downhill real fast. With the Maaco jobs I have been around they chip extremely easily and the paint looks horrible after a year or two. I do know that they do very little prep work. Not trying to rain on your parade man, it looks good.

Well thats why i went threw the extra trouble of registering it for the 5 year warranty so if there is a problem it will be covered no big deal.

Also since I have been so trigger happy with the camera here are some more pics...

 

[Bosko5.0]

looks good. all in all how much did it cost?

 

[GTA_V6_Mustang]

Well I got base and clear which was about 1k and some body work on the left rear quarter panel. That all came out to about 1200. And well I had to replaced the front bumper and left fender and headlight mounting panel. Bumper was 54 fender was 52 and headlight mounting panel was 28 and I installed them myself. So I guess with the panel bumper and fender included the whole deal came out to 1300 about and now I am waiting to recover to send it for wet sand and buff which will set me back another 150. But I love the way it looks
