As many of you have seen in my other post HERE my car has been in the process of getting painted. Well, its finally finished as of last weekend, so here some pics. It would be completely assembled again if we didnt get 18 inches of snow sunday . Should I keep the headlight buckets the same color as the car, or return them to how they came stock? I'm stuck in the middle and cant really decide. Feel free to give your opinions.

 

Dude, absolutely beautiful. I used to have a Polo Green LT1, Love it man, love it

 

lookin sweet.

 

gorgeous! great work guys!

 

Man that does look good. The Black stipe is just enough to break it apart alittle but not to much. Congrats. I like the newer SS spoiler on it too.

 

very nice!

 

that looks nice. did they wet sand after painting? I see no orange peel. sweet. what did they spray? primer, base coat, clear? how many coats of each?

 

No wet sanding or buffing yet He sprayed one coat of sealer, 3 coats of polo green metallic (Sherwin-williams ultra 7000 series), one coat of black for the stripe and then 3 coats of clear.

 

Plenty of clear to work with, thing is going to be slick!

 

That looks AMAZING.

 

Very nice!

 

The first pictures that you posted I didnt really like how it was green, but these pictures look badass! I really like it!

 

Very nice, what wheels do you have at home or plan to put on there?

 

Thanks for all the compliments guys. Unfortunatley I dont have a different set of rims right now, highschool budgets suck I do plan on purchasing a set of black ZO6 motorsports with a chrome lip by mid summer though.

 

Beautiful! I say leave the headlight buckets green. It stands out even more that way, and the matte finish on those always looked "dirty" to me.

Looks like a very high quality job!

I would definitely go black with the headlight buckets.

 

I think going black with the headlight buckets would compliment the stripe on the hood really nice. Just my .02

 

Actually, are the headlight buckets matte black for functionality reasons? Will a glossy clear coat around those headlights cause glare problems?

Man that is nice! Do the buckets and the tail panel in black.

 

They are gloss black from the factory on black vehicles. All other colors were matte black.
