You can have it cheap, fast or good. Pick any two.
If you want it cheap and fast, it's not going to be good. If you want it cheap and good, it's not going to be fast. If you want it good and fast, it's not going to be cheap.

OMG...that is without a doubt the baddest color. I love it. I can't wait to see it when its completed. I bet you are excited as hell. I know I would be, well I am and its not even my car...hehe.
#53572, "RE: Got new pics of paint job...should get car back this week!" In response to Reply # 22
Not for nothing but why aren't they painting the car at once. Don't you know paint drying is different and the color can be off due to the humidity and temp. If you paint it all at once it will dry all the same. If you paint piece by piece on different days it can be off. Any body shop guy will verify this. Also why didn't you mold your skirts in.

Also, any way you could help a fellow 2GNT'er with the paint code?
^^^I will ask tommorrow^^^
Its going back to the shop in the winter for storage/ shaved and molded and a custom hood design....possibly a tailight conversion (something out of the ordinary).and maybea targa ...and i know you thinking why didn't i have this done in the first place. Well i need my car back...like bad. And i only had a certain time frame that it could be in the shop for..even though it was past due already.

man, it must be nice to even have a place like that near you. I called like 40 places just to find someone to put stock sideskirts on my car, lol. Everybody was like no we dont do that, so I asked what happens if someone gets in an accident, will you just leave their stock pieces off? Of course they had no answer for me. Oh well, when i get my front Im going to have to travel just to find a body shop that will do the work. And I live in the capital of NC. Looks damn good though man, def post pics of the finished project

OK I checked yesterday and my car is done, all they have to do now is put back on all the molding etc. I am going there now, and i will get the paint code/manufacturer if its possible. I can't wait to get pics of the car while in the sun (and all clean)

Nice. Can anyone testify to the quality of Sherman Williams' auto finishes? Or should I see if I can get PPG to color match? I was thinking of going with Spectra Mica Blue before, but I'm in love with this color and I think it just shot up my list...
Love the car, it definately looks badass. Keep us up to date with pics.
