Maz,
is that XPEL person local to the Bay Area? I'm thinking about getting some applied. Those NT01s throw rocks hard!

Out of the paint booth.. indoors...



Outside in the sunshine...



A HUGE thanks to the crew at Best Of Show Coachworks for getting her back to health. A first class shop ran buy first class gearheads. I can't wait to see her after 40 hours of color sanding and buffing!

If you like chrome rims they really don't look bad. They are off a '67 Camaro (Tommy's) that was wrecked and is in the shop for repairs. The wheels and the tires are ruined, but they make good shop rollers for "big brake" cars like mine.

I just heard today that my wheels are on the way back from Forgeline...

It looks better now.

When they painted the front they had to match the rear so the pearl wasn't "flopped" the right way. In a way they had to paint it wrongish so it would match the rest.

Now they could spray it the right way and the pearl looks much better and really comes alive in the light.

<--- very happy
