That boy ain't right.

Jody's the only guy I know that will rip apart and paint a perfectly good car just for something to do.

Looks awesome. The silver jumps out at you much better than the dark gray.

I have seen this car quite a few times before just now realized I saw this car at Hot August Nights too.

New color looks great but of course the old color looked good too.

What silver is that? Some silver cars go flat and lose all the character of the car. This really highlights the shape and character lines of the car.

Have you thought about going darker on the wheel color? I think a charcoal or magnesium color would really make the paint pop and be a good contrast to the bright paint.

I am an art major

I have thought of changing the spoke color, but I wanted to see it completed first to decide. It's a new Mercedes silver, cost enough, so good to know it works. I really like it.

Thanks.
