Re: My New Paint Job!!!! lookin nice

Took me a while to notice the 2-tone. I'm not sure if I like the black on top or not. I really like the gun metal though, looks amazing!

Re: My New Paint Job!!!! lookin nice

Alright Ill try to answer everybody's question all at once here if i forget someone ask again and ill try to respond.
Alright the two colors are Mercedes Benz colors.

THE PAINT
The bottom one is a special edition which i dont know how to spell it but the paint code is 737. Its from a CLS55
The top one is an obsidian black also a special editon color, they are both metallics and looks alot nicer in the day time.

It cost me out of my pocket 1,300 total was 2,800 i got rear ended and after i got the 1,400 insurance check i paid the difference and here is my result as it stands.

My suspension is Skunk 2 coliover's on tokcio blues. about 2 inch drop on 18's

No i do not have a carbon fiber, and their is no mold on the trunk. I will post daytime pics when i get a chance to.

The front grille was from grillecraft at the time it was 80 dollars might of droppped by now not sure.

I think that covers everyone's question if i missed your question sorry. ASk me again

Thanks for the positive comments i was thinking i was gonna get alot of hate comments but i guess i did ok.

Oh, did you want some negative comments??? Alright, you ricer. What were you thinking when you got that colour combo?? I'd rather drive a stock dodge neon, than your car.



















































































































Just kidding, the car looks sick. I'm so jealous. I wish I had money use on a paint job like that, and I'm also jealous you live in vegas. I went there twice in about six months. Seriously sick ride you got there.

ALright not to sure how you wired yours up where your talking about electrical tape How many wire were on the projector? I had a seperate one for the angel eyes and all i did was tap into the sidemarker or turn signal wire and that took care of that. the other two connector where for low beam and the other for high beam. Hope this kind of helped if not let me know ill try to explain myself better.
