Automotive paint is used, Panels are striped, glue remover, sanded/prepped/painted. major labor involved.

Thanks for the all the thumbs everyone! I can't wait until this and the painted dash and gauge cluster come together.

The graphics look great!!!! The subtle airbrush shadow along the silver flames really sets them off, a very nice touch.
