Default I Painted my GTO, got PICS!!

Let me know what you think
I Painted it 3 weeks ago and finally buffed & finished trimming out.
It takes a While when im so busy
I pulled it in on Sat. morning took it all apart and got it prepped and put in the booth.......on Sunday morning I started spraying and had it baking by 3 o'clock. I had all the plastics in my prep booth, so I had to move them to the booth and bake them after I got the car out. At 10:30 I drove it home with everything put back on minus the door panels. hope you like it! I think I'm happy with it.

Hey bro I wish I had time to do custom paint, or any side jobs at all.
Everybody and their momma has been asking me to paint their sleds. But we have been busier than ever at the shop, and it doesn't look like its going to slow up anytime soon. Yeah money is great and all but working 50 to 65 hours a week barely gives me enough time to spend with the fam. "One day I'll have time to get my name out there on some more sleds"

That looks damn good! Another vote here for at least a black pinstripe between the silver and the red. But it looks awesome just the way it is.

if you did something with the hood scoops to make them stand out a lil more, it would be better (maybe), looks great though! what made you think of the idea to paint it like that?

Default Not done yet

I do have plans to have my striper friend to put that black stripe breaking up the silver/red,, as well as a red one to break up the blk/silver.. both about 1/8th in... But freehand stripes are never exact. And I'm thinking of a deep offset rim with the inner rim black and a fat azz polished lip. and Maybe later on a Drift body kit. I like the wide azz stance.. and I love to haul azz on a knike edge around corners. well everywhere actually. haha as for the hood I'm actually waiting for a bad *** hood like maybe a nice smooth cowl. and also a better looking front bumper. but remember i've only had it a month, There's still alot more to come.. thanks for the feedback i appreciate it all.
