Exclamation HELP! Pic needed of MS nose

If anyone one has a factory painted nose that they could snap a quick picture of and send it to me via e-mail, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Specifically, I'm looking for a pic of the area were the grey trim paint meets the body paint on the lower front of the nose.

The second time the shop re-sprayed the nose, it seemed as if the trim line was different. As I don't have a reference, a factory pic would be perfect to show them if the line was wrong.

Please p.m. me and I'll send off my e-mail address. Thanks again!

(here's the current trim line)

Bump

I'm really in need of these close up's for the line of the trim color vs. the paint color on the MS nose. If someone has the factory painted nose and can snap a few pics and e-mail them to me so I can print them off, I'd really appreciate it. Just send a pm.

I found a few on the site, but they printed off poorly when I tried to get a close up of the area in question.

Thanks! :D

Thanks guys!.....

I may have found a source (knock on wood) that can e-mail them.

The shop is "trying" hard to get it right, but if they can take a short cut...they will

Yeah MikeB looking at Racing Hart multi piece CX rims in brushed aluminum and polished silver lip. 10 in the back and 8.5 in the front, then I'll work on the suspension and drop it about an inch. I can't friggin wait, in the spring it'll all happen, gotta get the dough together, they are expensive. Any suggestions on tires, what are you wearing on your rims?

BIU do you have more pics of your hood other than what you have already posted also with the vents, did you ever update that thread with better pics? I'd love to see them. Thanks
