New Paint for My RS!
Here's another shot. The front is sitting low
because it still has the V6 springs in the front.
This camaro had a blown V6 in it
when I bought it.
So I converted it to a V8 (small block 350).
When my bank account recovers from the converison (V6 to V8). I'll get some new wheels (16X8 at least).

Thanks, Mark!
My Brother works for a bodyshop in town.
So I told him, I'd put popknots on the top of his head if he didn't paint it. I guess that's the advantage's of being an older brother. Actually he painted it for me for $1800 (that's including paint and material).Plus his boss let us use the shops paint booth to spray the RS
in. I'm very pleased with the results.

Yes you are correct it is Maui blue!
At first I wasn't sure about the color, but the more
I look at it the more I like it. Also it does seem a little darker
than the orginal paint (but that doesn't bother me).
On the wheels I'll probably go with a set of the 16X8 aluminum wheels
off a Z28 or RS (I don't want to stray to far from stock on the exterior).
Engine and chasis is a different story (mod baby mod)!

$48, that will be cheap if I can get on for $48 here.
Cause Shipping to Hawaii is outragous.
It would end up costing me sumtin like $70 to order it online.
I will have to check with the dealer...
Thanks for the info / compliment.

Class job CORNFLAKEKID.I,m doing my own car in Dodge viper blue this year.Hope it turns out as good.One question though,seeing as the paint is metallic is better to hang all the parts on the car and spray in one go or spray all the parts seperately.(I've been told by doing this the paint may not match).I've already sprayed the engine bay and I,m very happy with it.
