Well, way back when you asked, I told you to leave the white with the yellow and silver stripes.
Since you didn't listen...
...I at least have to say you've done a wonerful job!!!
I for one like the fact that you re-striped it! Very cool!:hail:

What amazes me ,looking at the undercarrige pic's is,how close the overspray pattern fits the factory's...
Was it planned or luck?
I know Vette restorers pay big bucks for correct overspray patterns
Again...VERY nice work!
Happy New Year

great car... I like that you put all the badges/ striping back on because I love how the irocs look. And like someone said, most people will think it's factory paint with all of that stuff back on there. Nice work.

And that brush on truck liner. I bet to get enough to adequately cover teh interior would be more $ then just spraying the inside with paint. Plus it would take a heack of alot longer to brush it and be more messy! Its one thing if you don;t have the car down that far and have to pay someone to take it apart then paint it. But if its already apart and can be painted why not take advantage?! Its alot harder to go back and do it. Its a paint to tkae a dash part! I for one would not want to do it and decide to go back later!

Truck bed liner is not that exspensive and it doesnt take that long we do the floor boards on all the cars we do its much tougher also you cant scratch it and it will help with the road noise. Good paint can cost around 200 a gallon altho the paint does look nice not saying its bad just not the way im going to go.
