Pics of friends custom painted 2001 Formula

So my friend had a silver 2001 Formula that had seen it's fair share of door dings and parking lot enounters. A few months ago he was involved in a wreck and decided to put on the Trans Am bumpers, side skirts, and WS6 Hood and paint it a custom Gun Metal color. I think it's an awesome color and looks good on the car, what do ya'll think?

Old Picture:


Pics with new paint:
















I know, I know, the wheels need to go and some nice chrome one's need to go on. He's deciding on what wheels to get next.

So sad to see an F-body all smashed up...

But I like the new color. Looks much better with the WS6 hood on there, I never really cared for the other one.

Not a bad color, If I ever had to repaint in silver/gunmetal I definitely would choose Viper steel gray.

In that area of Texas, most trees are Mesquites and Cedars which aren't the best trees for landscaping. Even with nice trees it has become SOP for developers to clear cut the area though.




Tech,
Viper steel grey looks great on f-bod IMO. Your friend chose his color well.
