I'm going to paint my black 04 ....looking to do something like
Ferrari pozzi blue...that is on the 575 Maranello's

Ferrari 575 Maranello

The PPG paint is like $200 a gallon.

I want a really nice shop to do the work...anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,

Eric

Really ...the PPG stuff is kinda difficult to get right from what I hear...I will give him a call

Thanks Jon!

P.S. I'm getting some subframes do you guys recommend any particular kind? The car is just plain mean now...and it's hard to get the power to the tires...need better suspension and Nitto's for sure.

Dan Donaca out in Hillsboro does real good work. (mostly street rods and custom harleys, but the occasional regular car)

Dont be suprised if he tries to talk ya into flames though...

Dave-


OH, and props on the MM full length sub frames. 10 out of 10 (imho)

Yeah, the Maximum Motorsports subs are good. The Kenny Brown extreme matrix kit is very sturdy as well!
