Looks awesome!

Redfire is a regular two step paint, right? Not the tri-coat of Laser Red? I know my paint is not a tri-coat and it looks exactly the same as yours, so I'd say there's a good possibility my "Laser Red" is actually Redfire.

Looks great, I like the Redfire color a bit better than laser red.

A chin spoiler and different wheels would make that car a bad bitch

Yea dude, its a 2 step paint. As it is, it was expensive for the base coat....and laser red costs even more

95riosnake- I couldn't agree more..I'd love a chin spoiler, im just afraid im gonna be ripping it off, but i can always take it off and sell it if i want...they are in high demand....and about wheels....well...do these work?? cause its what im gonna get



69clark- thanks a lot dude...having my car painted has just made me such a happier person....its hilarous...girls are like, OMG thats the most beautiful color ever, and guys are like HOLY **** THATS ****IN SICK MAN!!! Now im not embarassed to take it to car meets and such

No, definately red mirrors but you should have painted the cowl red while you were at it.

hey man thanks for the help on my seats. The car looks amazing. Don't listen to the negative comments that some people have said. Like if it were my car I would do this or would have done that. Who cares it's your car it looks awsome man. I really like the color and the hood looks really good too.

thanks a lot guys!!! i really love the way it came out, and i still have some little things i need to do...in the pics you cant really tell but theres a bit of orange peel, so in a month or 2 when its FULLY hardened, im gonna polish it, then wax it....otherwise i cant complain, it came even better than i expected!!

camaroeater01- blk9450's brother bryan painted it for me...PM him because im sure he would paint yours too....i asked if anyone else wanted paint, so hit him up....

Why? I think they look horrible in black plastic, hence why I painted mine the first chance I got.

EXACTLY...i argued with my dad about it cause he thought the paint would chip, but the painter used adhesion promoter, and he no admits they look a thousand times better painted...

Looks great Michael.

I'm with you (and I see your Pops reason for the worry). But it seems to me that it would be a PITA for you to body-color the mirrors down the line, but it would be pretty easy to remove them and shoot them black again (if they get scraped by fat people in parking lots who dont know what a cart return is). Were I in your shoes, I'd have done the same.

I know you had been really wanting to get it done. Looks great brah!

That was awsome



Ahh, I look forward to the day I strip the entire damn car and get it shot in black again . . . one of these days
