Re: how to paint?

The paint should be MUCH...

Re: how to paint?

Thanks for the props. It is not as perfect as I want it, but that does not really matter, because I am going to be repainting it later this year. Probably will keep basically the same design, but change it a bit...more complex....and add some silver to tie in the Kevlar dash kit. Here are some pics....

Re: how to paint?

I painted my wifes MX-3 by myself with no experience. I think it turned out great. I am actually going to be repainting it later this year, so I will get even more experience. I now have a learning curve, so it should look better and be easier for me. Dont skimp on the prepwork.

Re: What you Think? Too Ricey?!

They are not rare. If you are saying they are rare just because you dont see many people with them...that is not rare. I can go on Ebay any day of the week and get altezzas for $150. The reason you dont see them is because most people think they are stupid and they dont put them on their car anymore...

Re: Awsom photoshop here

That is photoshopped. I have that SUV on a DVD (Mischief) and it has either 26 or 28 inch rims, NOT 40's.

Re: Texas and surrounding states

**** man....that was you? I was not sure. We thought about pulling over to see if you pulled over too....that way we knew you were with us. However, I could not really find a good place to pull over....then I almost missed the exit....not paying attention...sorry man. We thought you knew where it was.

Re: Texas and surrounding states

We plan on showing BOTH days. The gates open at 11:00am so come early so we can park together in the show! Our car is not perfect...and I am self-concious about many things on it, but I figured why not show it. It is a daily driver, so it will not be perfect.

Re: wife's new speakers

We went with bars because plexiglass would get scratched with the everyday uses it gets....stroller, groceries, etc. My design originally did have plexi, but they talked me out of it because it would get messed up....I'm sure they are right. As far as the neon light....I dont really like where it is...
