I'd get the motor put in before you get it painted...you never know when some mechanic could accidentally drop a wrench on your fender...

It has been brought up several times but sofar nobody that I can think of has had the onions to actually go through with it. I think it would look good.

Well if I go with another color I won't be able to match the bay too it if the motor is in... I think CMS know what they are doing and know I am having the car painted before I take it to them. They will take care of my car and I trust Ryne

LOL, I am going to go see my painter today and see what he think's on the what it will take to make the car look great with the color. DAMN I really like the way the color is and how it look's with black wheel's.. Also to me it make's the car look more meaner
