I guess it depends on what else you have lined up.

Everyone doesn't know that Keith's stage 2 is actually an oil change, that'll include a NEW filter!! Way to go man!

That looks pretty cool, the metallic probably gets that to match up with the car pretty good.... I like it. How are you applying it? I don't see 8 miles of masking paper/plastic... must be going on with a brush on application then I take it. How much less work is that then spraying it LOL... saved me a ton of time.

covered the dash/console and used cardboard on the tighter places.
Base coat in enamel that was brushed(2 thin coats) then 2-3 coats of the metallic spray. its alot easier to spray hands down though . i should be able to have it all back together sunday . then maybe get some daylight pics
