i couldn't decide where i should stop the black on the rear, so i decided not to do it and see how it looks without it.
alan, it wasn't in bad shape when i started so it didnt take alot of hours. i did the hard part years ago when i painted it the first time.
it just had chips and nicks here and there.
dose, i thought the 2 colors would good together before i sprayed it and now that it's done i'm happy with the way it turned out.
thanks everyone for the compliments

81pilot, i totaly stripped the whole car down the the glass about 3 years ago and painted it. so the hard part was done already. it just had chips and scratches that had to be repaired. and the hood was new. this was only the 2nd paint job on the car. if i have to paint it again i will strip it down again. i don't like more then 2 paint jobs on a car.
the colors are 90-91 corvette steel blue and some black pearl i have.
the blue pinstripe is 93 kawasaki zx7 blue i had left over.
rogman, i've used just about every paint line but i've been using DeBeers paint for the last 7 or 8 years and really like it!!!
i've sprayed my truck, grand sport hayabusa and prob over a hundred other cars with it and never had a prob with it.
