Ive been trying to decide for 3 days what color to paint the manta. At this point Im pretty much torn between Silver or red. I think red with red emblems would look pretty cool, Id also have some sort of text painted in the manta on the side of the scoop....I cant decide what text I want either

Thoughts??

Im kind of leaning towards a metallic silver. The only thing is Id have to get silver or chrome emblems, the ones I have now are red.

I LOVE Cyber grey but its a little darker than Im looking for. I want it to 'pop'

I think the example you posted of the red looks really good but I generally do not like it as well as other combos. So I say silver for sure.

I cant make up my damn mind. Now my buddy wants me to do Synergy green Berger stripes with ghost flames.

Weve put alot of stripe tape on this hood but no paint yet.

We had a huge hail storm here a couple weeks ago so its had us really busy. Today I started to change the a/c compressor since I had air tools and a lift around. Heres a dirty pic in the shop today, I still need to wetsand and buff it.

Were finally cought up from the big hail storm that came through so I was able to get a little more done today. I finished hanging the nose and inner fenders then fixed a couple spots on the spoiler. I also finally got around to wetsanding and clearing my headlights.

Tomorrow Ill prep hood, nose, and decklid so my buddy can do the final layout of the stripes. Whenever the booth is available its going in!

Heres a couple pics of the progress today.

I never had that kind of luck on the headlights on my z, they never cleaned up that clear.. The SS has aftermarket ones on it that I am planning replacing with stockers.
