Default Back from paint...

I know its not an LS1 but this little project belongs to my brother. Its a 1996 c1500 with a 350.

Here are some before and after pictures, let me know what you think.

Before:





After:









I know that the paint looks like **** from the side picture but cheap camera+bad glare=shitty pictures.

Also, I know that the roll pan and the drivers side door is a little out of alignment, so we will be getting those and some other little overlooked details taken care of this week...

We have quite a few all black trucks in town, and we knew he wanted black, but still we wanted it to be different. Plus, it saved him alot of money considering he is 17 with a $5.15/hr job...
