Default new project

well,

you can see here from my new avatar that my new paint, with the zr1 rear and gs stripe (reverse) is about done......I'll be glad when this project is over since the reason why I am going through another project of this nature was not a good story.......hopefully all worth it in the end.....the car looks fabulous....

only one other and it is the hood (propped open) since that was the way it was in the shop; just the opposite side of what you see here taken the same time. I was supposed to pick it up last week but they had trouble getting the front bumper stripes to line up with the hood.....they were painted separately since the car has a new hood, front bumper, and zr1 rear fascia....It already has the chrome zr1 wheels which have been on the car for nearly 7 years.....it's a project car as you can see from my signature....every year something new....I like these C4's.....yea, I could have bought something newer, but I sure like to have something not many people have....and surprising them at times...with all the improvements, but I'll be holding on to it for a while....
