It looks Sweet!..

While watching this thread something occurred to me, almost every C-4 pic I have seen with the passenger door open is missing the fusebox door..LOL I thought it was just my car.. but I guess not.

Seriously very nice work..

If you look, you can see my ugly mug on the hood.

Repainted his own C4 AND wearing a Corvette shirt. "I repainted my whole car myself, what'd you do? Bought a chrome grille to stick on your C6?". We need more guys like you around C4 gen, CorvetteMike.

Great job on your son's trans am as well.

THANKS FOR THE GREAT POST MIKE:
You have taken away that demon of fear that haunts me, saying if I touch sandpaper to paint, my life will fall apart.
Now I look forward to getting started. Thanks again Mike.
