I'll probably just wait a month then. Swing by my house when I pick it up. I'll hit you up.

I was wondering what color it was originally, and duh! it was pewter. At first I didn't get changing the color until the last few pics. SOM is the only color I would have gotten over the pewter. Car looks great man, can't wait to see the final pics. Keep up the good work. Photoshoot with some fine honeys please......?

Who ever painted that for sure knows what they are doing. Looks amazing for no cut of buff.

As others have said, PPG is very good paint. I use their paint on almost everything I do. Can't wait for more pics!!!

No, my engine bay was not done. I will be taking it back to get done once I swap my motor.
