overall i say this paint looks outstanding and i love it....but i will say you need to bring the front end out more to take away from all the black and break it up some....like the headlights and parking lights...



look at how much these headlights brighten up the front end...big time difference!!...

i wont rag on wheels because i am sure you got those figured out already....good job so far!...

I think it looks great.. lots of attention to detail and they're very pleased with the outcome.. isn't that all that matters?!

the hood is very unique with the paint.. almost looks like devils tails.. I am more of a traditional 50's flames guy but I think yours look good.. especially the side shot!

hi-jack not intended, but black84z28-4spd you need some new corner lenses to match those new headlights and fogs.. they just look too darn dark!

They look like Wet Okole covers. They work well on this car, I think.

Yes I'm sorry- thought I said they are Wet Okole. They feel AWESOME too by the way. They make the seats more comfy than they already were!

looks really great finished....very clean and no orange peel! I especially love the back end (last pic on site) the two-tone really sets it off

....and get the same wheels I have - they'd rock that car's face off

I'm still hoping someone photoshops some American Racing Rebels and also the Chrome IROCs on it so I can see how that will look. I posted another thread but nobody has done those two yet and those are my favs.

THANKS!

Though I can't say I like the car as a whole, I love the black, which is oddly, really hard to get right. Do you know the paint code/brand for it? Mine's gonna get painted mostly, or all, black, in the very near future, so I'm trying to collect blacks I like... There's so many variants on it, it's kinda funny to me.

lol, you think that sounds funny, theres like a billion different kinds of white. when i painted my white honda, the mixture had 9 different colors in it. white, red, blue, yellow, transparent orange, transparent purple, silver, black, just to name a few. all put together to make the honda white.

they add all kinds of tints to it, and different amount and kinds of metallics to it...im not really sure why either. should just be plain black with different degrees of metallic, but what can we do

Well, the one that's on my car is just pretty un glossy, shallow looking color. The color I'm looking for is as deep as possible, and has that great look to it.. I guess it's kind of hard to describe, you just know it when you see it...
