Thanks everybody, it doesn't feel like I can wait another day to get her back and slap on my new wheels and tires I have waiting on it! DuPont paint code is 43462 for those wondering. I'll have all kinds of pics up as soon as I get any more. Honestly at first I was skeptical about my decision on choosing orange but I am becoming more and more confident on it the further the process comes along. Loving it.

Heres a couple of quick pics! Just picked her up from the paint shop and went for a spin. Nice but cold weather here in Chi. Next step - replace the socket for the DRL.

Still isn't home yet! I WILL have pics up immediately as soon as I get her back. This is taking a lifetime...guess I can't complain.

I know it must be killing you that it's taking so long. Maybe by the end of the week. I'll post better pics of my freshly painted baby when the weather gets warmer here.
