I like the sides.

The hood reminds me of the Smoky and the Bandit hood (big bird on hood)

Hey Raz
do you think you'll have your car back for the meet on the 24th....

PS...i like the red flames on the side..

I had a Liberty rental once. And it was a HUGE POS. It got 11mpg! Thats right, eleven. My 8 has never gotten that low mileage. The little display on the roof is what calculated it.

The jeep just had its right oil change before I got it. But since it wasn't done at the dealer, they couldn't reset the "Car needs service" alert. So every time I put the key in the ignition, it made an annoying tone telling me to change the oil. Other cars that do that have a manual reset button somewhere.

It was better then a Sebring, but it was still a POS.

I doubt it.

Dear Lord - Please don't let Raz put flames "coming out of the side vent". Thank you.

I do like the 1st 2 pics, though. The hood on the 1st is accented really nicely; the second hood is a bit too busy.

I didn't put much into the Sunlight Silver curse, but 2 close calls with cars turning left in front of me changed my mind. My wife suggested driving with my headlights on, but, I remember hating DRL's on my Suburban I had a few years ago.

I then remembered that I had re-wired my foglights to run separately from the headlights. I started using that during the day about two months ago. So far, so good.

Also, if you have a Sunlight Silver, drive it like a motorcycle, very defensively!

ENOUGH ALREADY!

All 4 of my vehicles are silver. You guys are gonna jinx me!

well, you could come without the car....bring the family as we are having food stuffs....and actually YOU are really more important than your car....
and you would get to meet peeps from the forum...

If I'm not working 24 hours a day by then, I'll come. (Flyers preseason open is 21st, and season open is Oct 6th, and by day I'm working for Comcast making graphics for the game presentation, by night I'm frelancing for ANC making the graphics that Comcast is contracting from ANC as part of the new scoreboard purchase. I'm busy busy busy!

Update: here's some pics of the hood and side after the design has been laid. The design colors are hard to make out: its Mazda's Phantom blue color with a 1/8 white stripe. I messed up laying the line work in one portion on the passenger side, so I'll have to figure out how to fix it, but other than that I love how it came out.

And, I should get my car back on Tuesday! Yay!

Wow! How often does a person paint vs using vinyl?

I don't know... I love the fact that this will be under the clear and perfectly smooth, no edge, no chance of peeling, etc.

Damn.. I like the custom paint job... not my personal taste but it still looks killa.
Nice that your bodyshop let ya do this, I'm assuming you befriended them quickly hehehe.. :rock:

Dig it! & I'm glad you didn't go w/the flames.

That was just a joke for the fun of it :-)

well there goes your stealth mode.

Well, my baby is back on the road again! they did a decent job fixing it up. Here are some new pics:

I'm going in on wednesday for a few final tweaks and minor parts. So far I'm getting nothing but rave reviews of the new paint job. I guess all is well that ends well... now if I can only get my deductible reimbursement check soon.

are those factory chrome/polish wheels?

factory dark chrome. Look awesome when they're freshly cleaned, and still look okay with 500 miles of brake dust on them.
