Painted at last

Stang951 · 08-01-2002, 09:53 PM

Here it is painted. Just have to put the side skirts and wing on. Gonna order the rims after income taxes next year.

The only thing I have to order, which I forgot about is the roof rail molding and the door belt moldings that go under the window.

That looks great man. How much did you spend to get it painted, if you don't mind me asking?

Stang951 · 08-01-2002, 10:32 PM

Total it cost 1500. At first I really didnt want to spend that much but boy am I glad I did. The tape job and blocking that was deon was well worth the money. The only thing that my friend didnt do was delete the antenna. Instead of paint there you will see a delete plate (when it comes in).

Wow, that paint job looks really nice! What is the color name? For $1,500 I think you got really nice work done. Im looking to repaint my stang at the beginning of next year.

Nice paint! I really like the front valence/grill/hood combo

i can honestly say, i dont like that green, but on your car it looks great! nice job! BTW, why didnt you paint your door handles?

I cant tell, but that looks exactly like the Winter Mint green that I had my Capri painted back in 1990.

I can honestly say though that your car looks better than mine did.. hehehe

I like it!!

I like it! It looks similar to the Kawasaki green on their dirt bikes.

Stang951 · 08-03-2002, 12:01 PM

I didn't notice the door frames either till I got back to the shop yesterday.
I alos didn't want the door handles painted to match the car so they would break up the color some. I started to line the front bumper up and replace the fender extensions, but my friend had to take care of a family emergency so we didn't finish.

Really looks great! I would think about some fog lights in the spots in the bumper. I'm want to get my 91 lx hatch repainted soon. Awesome car.
