Wow that looks amazing! you can even see the reflection of other cars like looking off of a lake without the wind. BEAUTIFUL! (not to mention just dead sexy)

Is that also a GMC Jimmy perhaps? If so I'm laughing because this reminds me alot of my home: 280ZX always parked to our Jimmy.

Dang, I don't know if I should shame myself or try to make excuses.

Maybe I can go edit the post before anyone else sees!

Hahaha just kidding, I'll deal with it... but our Jimmy is a red like that with the black bug deflecter, hot stuff haha

but with your paint, I really wish mine looked as good as that, you're now an Icon for my Z progress

Hey Skully, you can paint my car any time......as a matter of fact if you supply the paint and equipment we can work something out...or whatever works it out in my favor to get an awsome paint job like that. I don't mind man...really, please, paint my car!!!! I know I could not buy a paint job that nice but if payment is something you need you can have one or both of my sisters!!! I also have some used ex-girlfriends, I am sure they will hook you up!

Big difference when you pay some body to do something, for the most part, money is the motivating factor in doing the job, with Skully I bet he new what he wanted and went for it. If there is a job I can do myself I will always do it because I care how the JOB itself gets done and I know what I want the outcome to be. When I did the window tinting and car stereo instals at the same place my bosses would yell at me for taking too long. Hey, so sue me for wanting everything to be perfect, I know the customers liked my work a whole lot and made it easy to get side jobs.
