I stopped by and took a few pictures with my cell phone of the car with the front bumper on... The front bumper is still not done being color sanded :eek:

That looks good...

IMO... it would look 10x better if you had some of the lighter blue behind the fender wheel wells...

Theres too drastic of a color change going from before the front wheels to after...

maybe have just a little bit of the blue flame there...

JMO... looks good none the less...

Well I didn't want the flames to go back past the fenders because it would have looked weird when the doors are up. Thanks though :dancing6:

That orange peel will come out with some wetsanding, then some buffing afterwards. I'm sure you're payin a decent amount for the job, and since you are building a show car I would want that paint smooth as glass.

Front bumper is on, the whole car is color sanded. Now we are just waiting for the brackets for the rear bumper. I think I like how the foglight bezels look blue, sorry guys. New pics from today...
