thats sweet, looks like some orange peel on one of the fenders, that must be before they got it buffed, the blue looks awesome on the black.

lol That's not Orange peel, that is wet clearcoat..... I literally took the pics seconds after Chris finished spraying the clearcoat..... They are colorsanding and buffing the paint today..........:rock:
 
i love that kinda stuff just no one around here id trust to do it id love to have my stripes flamed up
 
Looks good Bro and at least you found a shop with some creativity ,so much stuff these days looks stickered . Hope she looks as good when you get her home . I specially like the handles and windows ya put on the trunk ROFLMAO . I will tell you what , for the guys that saw peel . If you know someone who can hose clear with NO peel send him my way as that would save mucho denero is cost if we didn't have to buff & color sand every thing . Painting a ride does not take long the time is in the prep and the finish out ,well unless you have a bunch of grafix and I have seen that go a week on a complicated design . Good paint work is hard to find that why we got into it . I couldnt find any shops that did the quality I expected and the bad thing about building cars is no matter how bad assed the ride you build the guy slobering paint can make or break the job .The metal guys never get credit for anything it's alway the painter that gets the credit :0

I coudn't agree more......

I was actually gonna ship my beast to Phoenix as I have a friend of a friend that does amazing work, but then I was referred to this guy by a very good friend............. Am happy that I found this guy, cause I am able to check the progress whenever I want. hehe. ABQ pretty much sucks for finding quality tradesmen...... IMO

Gee why doesn't that shock me LOL hmmmmmm maybe cause we gets cars from all over the country . Now the odd thing is 1/2 the locals never heard of us ,which I really do not understand, what I wonder about is why some guy from Cali or IL is calling me and how did they even know when the local guy stops and askes "When did you open " ,,I just grin and tell them ,right there about 17 years ago ROFLMAO .
I'm just glad you got something you are happy with ,since many dont .
