I finally got around to taking some decent pictures of my new paint.. I still have a few things to do but the hard part is over!
Let me know what you think! http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e1...1/IMG_2387.jpg No windshield or mirrors yet.. http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e1...1/IMG_2393.jpg I shaved the antenna too. http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e1...1/IMG_2392.jpg http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e1...1/IMG_2395.jpg http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e1...1/IMG_2389.jpg http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e1...1/IMG_2391.jpg Heres what it looked like before........ http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e127/cdog91/138.jpg http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e127/cdog91/142.jpg |
How'd it get wrecked? Looks good, but I'd say ditch the wheels, lower it, and defintely paint the headlight buckets black.

Black headlight buckets! And yeah, the wheels stick out too far to look right unless you put ground effects on it. I have the Rebels on my blue car, but they only look good because the ground effects stick out as far as the wheels do. Otherwise, I'd get some wheels that tuck into the wheel wells better. Paint look great though!

those wheels will look better if you lower the car. x4 on the headlight buckets AND grill in satin black.

The car has come a long way, props to you for taking the time to put it back together whereas others would have just sent it on its way to the junkyard. I agree with the others, the headlight buckets would look alot better black. With that wheel/tire combo, the car definitely could use a drop to close up those huge gaps. Maybe get some polished tailpipes down the road, otherwise its looking very good. :thumb:

He may just be saving the buckets til last. Being a Z, I would've painted the top black, but that's just me.

I didn't even notice the grille. So used to it being white. It also doesn't look like the roof got messed up from the crash. Impressive!
As for the roof ALL HAIL the 4th gens structural design for keeping my head in tact! |
My car salesman always told me "if you're going to be in a wreck, be in a Camaro or Corvette, because you'll usually walk away." I guess he was right!

Yeah, a car salesman told me once that the firebirds came supercharged from the factory. Sounds like an idiot to me! They'll tell you anything to sell the car.
