Thanks everyone for the compliments.. I love the paint job too. When I dropped off the car I wasn't aware that the shop was going to add the tears and the shawdow... The interior turned out real good too and glad that I did that.

To answer questions. The headlights I have are the ichikoh headlights. As for getting the marble effect, I am not sure how that was created. Ihaven't asked the shop owner yet on how he did that. I have heard rumors from other people on how it is done, but I'm not sure on what process he did.

Thanks again everyone for the compliments on my car.. I love the way it looks and hope to start winning ha ha ha

it was either that...or newspaper soemthing of that nature is how they do it...

by the way...it looks like sheit! i mean the paint is all mushed around some black some blue. what you couldnt just pick blue or black so you had to swirl it? and then tear graphics? more like its just peeling off to show under coating

okay so maybe im just jealous i got out did in the PNW...back to the freaking drawingboard for me...

I'LL BE BACK RAT!!!! I'LL BE BACK!
