Wow! That's an outstanding price if the work was done right. That's not much more than the mass market cheapo paint joints. Congratulations!

He spent $400 on the paint and clear.m I will ask him the brand and type. I was a little deceptive but did not mean to be that way.
About eight months ago I had him paint the drivers door and right quarter and I paid him $500 for that work.

This job included some body work on the hood and front bumper to make it fit a little better. The car really did not require any additional body work...just very minor spots.

He painted the hood, front and rear ends, left quarter and passenger door. The only thing he did not paint were the fenders and trunk lid.

I not really of fan of white cars either, but I love the 99 Anniversary Edition. While I was looking at your pictures before reading the thread I was thinking to myself.....that would look even better if it has the 99 Anniversary stripes. Maybe what might look better would be to have stripes that match your other decals. They look like a dark gray or blue, not sure. Just an idea.
