Default New Custom Paint...2010 SS
Just finished the new paint and wanted to show it off a little bit..

The car was painted in my little shop in my back yard by a good friend of mine Landon March. Took about 2 1/2 weeks to complete.. The red is the factory paint, everything else was done with PPG & House of Kolors. Then the entire car was cleared, wet sanded, & polished out...all the emblems have been debadged and painted on..

Mmmm....I take that back. I think your friend needs some more practice with the painting skills. I will do him a favor and let him work on my car just so he can get some more experience under his belt. I will even let him put his logo on my bumper and I won't charge him a thing for the advertising.

Let me know!!!

WOW - simply amazing!!!!!

BTW - Don't drive that car in Texas as DPS here will pull you over in a heartbeat for those Blue Halos and DRL's as it is very illegal to have blue or red lights on a private vehicle.

Are they the dual color halos I've seen from AAC or something like that? They let you switch from White to any other color.

Car looks amazing, something new to look at from every angle!

The guy is a great job with the paint and detail.

But, IMO I do not like what you did. As long as you like it, that's what matters most.
