Hey guys!
Here are a few pics of the progress and the almost final result...
Only thing missing is to black out the chrome next week.
The result is amazing!!!
I will soon also black out the tail lights and install the head light covers (lamin-x).
I will convert the head lights to HID soon too.
So here are a few pics of the evolution.
Next week the final results. Tell me what you think!

Now with the parts back in their place but still the chrome to be blacked out next week to allow the red to sit in completely:
In the day light with no sun:

At night under lamp posts:

The copper shines when no day light:

A bit more red at the gas station:

It's gonna be a mean machine with no chrome, tinted headlights and HIDs!:

Finally but not least, I was driving my car back home from the garage and saw a friend on the highway just before going in the tunnel. Since she wasn't driving, I asked her to take a picture of the car in movement, it looks like a professional shoot!
What d'ya think?

Thanks!

Thanks!
The only daylight pic I posted is the first one on post #63.
When the car will be completed, I will post more pics and will take them with a better camera than an iphone...

That is wild!  Looks like SEMA.  I like your new avatar too.

Standout results, Steve!  The in-progress pics are amazing in their own right, like sketches on a canvas.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Q 4 U, Steve.  With the baking process, I assume the look will still be "matte"?  Can you glossify it if desired with wax or sealant?  How long with the PD last this way, and what would you need to do when it was time to take it off/change it out?  TIA.
