nice cant want to see it all cleaned up and finished

[arismkv]

Thanx all for the great comments.

My car has been in the shop for a while now. But my oil was changed b4 I brought it in. Anyone think i should change oil again?
Also what should i do about the fuel. I was thinking of adding half bottle of seafoam.
Good enough?

Ill post some pics of some new things painted later tonight.

[arismkv]

hood was repainted completely, top and underneath.


back bumper painted separately



Front bumper looks soo clean..





Led tails were a little too red, asked to have them smoked. Cant decide if I like them just yet.
They looked to dark when I first looked at them..
