Hey all, check out my new custom electron blue paint job! Shes's got 10 coats of paint, 5 coats of clear and custom mixed pearl! The car originally was Navy Blue Metallic. Let me know what you think! Should i keep the door moldings shaved? Goto www.firebirdomain.com and check out the pictures. I am told it looks 10,000 times better in the sunlight. I shall have more pictures probably next week!

Weekend/evening (great weather only!) driver. I used to race it, now i might die down a bit with that and go just show. I have alot of fabulous ideas that you guys are gonna flip for. Alot of custom work, and alot of nice engine enhancements. When its done it will truely be unique!

[HOMER] MMMMMMmmmmm... Electron Blue! [/HOMER]
The sad thing is Electron Blue is gone on Vette's for 04... replaced by "Daytona Blue"...

Hopefully it can carry the torch so to speak.

Thanks for the compliments guys! As you can tell its not the normal electron blue, i wanted something a bit different. Its the same point code and base color with a twist! Should be done this week, don't know how many sunny shots i'm gonna get though, i pick it up either tuesday or wed, possibly later, body shop delays, what can ya do.

WOW! What a beautiful color! I definitely want to see some pics of that bad boy out in the sun. Nice looking patriotic wallpaper, by the way.

That paint job looks Great. I want ten coats and 5 clears. That must of cost you quite a bit unless you paint cars. However, i feel the result is worth it. Nice work
