svo-orange
Still painting on it, Turned out much too glossy for what I wanted but I can fix that. I hope. Always wanted one this color. Just a little to much bling. It will be good for hunting season. I fiberglass the fender to the front bumper to get rid of the seam. Don't know how long it will last but for now it it smooth.

couple more. Also getting Coupe to help out on something. Come on coupe!!!
I'll have it out in the sun next week. WIth the hood and hatch on. Still wainting on the black trim for the windows rocker and splats. Hope to paint that Sunday night. I did learn something about painting. If it don't go on easy then don't fight it. When I painted the hood and hatch the paint flowed very well with no problems. When I painted the body. Nothing did right. May have to respray it one more time if it don't buff out.

Almost, the idea did come about with the rims. Orange on the outer most ring. I was to chicken to do it. Soon as I get it out in the sun I will know for sure on the color.

I like the black trim you have done around the nose piece. Are you going to paint the molding black too (front and rear bumper covers)?

May do the bumper cover trim in black. For now it will stay same as the car. Still waiting on the spliter in front. After that I will know what else to paint black.
