Default Custom paint job on my SLP lid, check it out.

Just picked it up today. Done by a friend of my father in law's. This pic doesn't do it justice. The SLP chrome insert was hand laid and then trimmed in black vinyl tape. The pin stripping was also done by hand in a light blueish-silver. It's going to like awesome under the hood.

LOL, funny you should say that. My father in law and I were talking about Barris earlier today when I went to pick up the lid. The guy that did the painting for me has met Barris at some pin stripping convention he goes to ever year. I'll tell him what you said, he'll get a kick out it. Joe, what til you see it in person, it's droooooooooooooool....

Yeah, I'm not working that night so I'll be able to make it out there. I'm going to wait on the lid install until I get my custom FRC's from Afterthoughts Automotive though.

Hope that bitch doesn't rub the hood like my SLP does... That'd definitely put a nice little place in your clear...
