sick! how much?

[D Money]

Thanks for all the compliments guys. Everyone is asking price which is fine but I really can't say. The reason I got the price I did is because I went to school with the kid who painted my car from the 1st grade on.

I will say that he does absolutely insane work. We stripped the entire car including doors, trunk, wing, hood, fenders, all moldings, almost everything just to get a perfect paint job! I was leary on the paint color for the longest time because I wanted white, but I wanted it to be really bright and also have alot of pearl. Well to keep it bright white I went with the brightest white base coat around and that's off the corvette. To give it the pearl effect and turn the paint from 2 stage to 3 stage we added white/silver pearl coat on top and now the car pops! The paint looks insane under the light with all the body lines, just amazing. I will get some better pics of it this week some time, this time with a camera and not my cell phone. lol

He works at a multi-million dollar body shop in Mt. Laurel as a head painter and he is only 20.

His dad also owns a shop, which is where he has been doing my car. I already talked to him last night about doing some other cars and he said he needs a break and doesn't want to get into anything else for atleast a couple months.

You won't be able to get custom work done at his day paint job, so your only chance is to know him personally for him to do it after hours at his dad's body shop. Other than that he won't touch it.

[D Money]

Thanks guys, I can't wait to see how it turns out as well.

Matt, shoot me a PM and we can talk there since I am at work right now. lol

Jdm87, it will cost around $3,000 for a full color change. That's not what I paid but you get the idea...

[Evo8kid]

Yo D, i remeber when you didnt know what color you wanted haha, but the corvette white is one of my favorite whites! I cant wait to see it

[D Money]

Dude the whole time I still didn't know what color but it came to the point where I had to choose so I went for it. I wanted to stay bright white without turning yellowish but I also didn't want it to look stock that's why we mixed a pearl coat on top.

No matter how good your car looks, it will never top your cell phone modelling picture.

Should I paint my Nitrous bottle to match the car? I need to see if NX will give me a new sticker, but still unsure.
