The car goes to his shop some time next week. It will probably be Friday because I'm working Tues/Wed/Thurs night. He is going to do all of the prep work there and take it to the body shop to spray it. We are still discussing the color. I'll keep this thread updated. He has a 69 Camaro drag car that I'll try to get some pictures of while I'm there. He has had it since he was in high school. It's a big tire big block car now.

I sent my cousin all the info to get a quote to paint my Trans Am. He is quoting it a couple different ways so we will see.  I might help him do some of the prep at his shop. We would only have to take it to the body shop he manages to spray it.  I'll do that if the hands off quote is over $3500.  I'm definitely doing the AMG silver i talked about before.  I don't want to do the engine compartment or door jambs which is required for a color change so i picked the most badass silver i could find. It will be that color unless the materials turn out to be outrageous.

Before:

Silver car on the right


Color i want:

It's the only silver i've ever seen that "pops." It looks wet from across, reflective from straight on, and shadows from above and below.  The shadows are key.  I think the voluptuous body on a ws6 t/a will cast a lot of those dynamic shadows.
