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.
Hi!
The baking process is, from what I understood, to give a smoother finish. The color is unchanged. I watched a lot of videos on youtube with Fonzie from dipyourcar.com and I believe you can add a clear on it etc. But, since I was not going that route, I didn't ask directly my guy. I will PM you his coordinates and he has contacts in the States as well that he can refer you to (in Philadelphia and Texas I believe).

Very Nice!  The only thing I would have done differently would be the front end.  I would have done the bumper between the grills and the risers between the headlights and grill.

I tried it with photoshop and by far this one was the winner. Keep in mind it is not yet completed... When the head lights will be tinted, the HID lights converted and the chrome blacked out, this was the look of the mean machine/European class car that I was looking for...
But thanks for your comment!

Got my car back this affernoon... Sick!
I love it! These guys really worked a lot on the car...
Only thing left to do is to install the lamin-x on the head lights and probably put the tail lights a bit darker... They gave 5 coats, it looks nice and clean, but I'd prefer a bit darker. Also, I had the Ford emblem blacked out, but I will probably buy a black and red emblem to put over...
I only have a couple pics. I will take more after Holidays with a better camera.
What do you think?

I looked and I looked, can't find a flaw on this thing!  Really should come up with a nickname to reflect its' newfound personality :)

steve-now i see why you didn't use my idea of flaring to windshield, the twin turbo decals, much better than my idea. love the spoiler in black as well. that's the way my old mopars were, had blacked out hood as well then they on my 71 duster had a huge engine decal that said 340 on it. over the top would be to put SHO in big letters on the hood, that being said you did another top job of making your SHO a non-sleeper.
