Look at the "bright" side, the police won't have any trouble spoting it if it is ever stolen.

So Justin does this guy live in Newburgh? Probably not but I am there an awful lot and that would definitely grab my attention if I saw it on the road.

The creativity and talent that went into that paint job was incredible. The more I looked at it the more I appreciated the paint scheme. Thanks for sharing the picture. I enjoy looking at everyone's ideas of the ultimate car. I'm still trying to come up with my idea of ultimate.

Awesome work Justin!!!! If people really knew just how much time it took to do that, they wouldn't be as hard on you as they are. Also you did great work on the bikes you use to paint for OCC!!!!!!!!!!!

It's a cool looking paint job...there's just so MUCH of it...
It would look good on a custom motorcycle, but it's a little busy for something larger like a car.

I love this paint on my bike, but I can't imagine it on my vette.

I like the paint job. It is one of a kind I have looked around at different custom paint jobs and this is one of a kind. Where can you find a site the just shows off custom paint jobs?
