Once he had my parts it only took 2-3 days TOTAL to sand, prime, paint and clear 3 times. The paint is PPG paint with the same paint code as whats on your car. It will match without a doubt.
would he sell me just the paint / clear coat? I would like to do this myself but need to find an exact match for brickyard.
Anyone know of a place in DFW that can match this color?

Check out the date on this original post. This is MUCH before the Z engine plate was made.

a) primer
b) reducer
c) clear
At cost I think it was 110 for me. Keep in mind poor Brian has lots of labor on these.

Wadd,
What brand of paint did you use? I have some high heat paint that I bought at Pep Boys for $4.99 that is called engine enamel. This stuff might be crap? I was thinking about getting my engine cover & Battery cover etc. painted Red and whant to make sure it is done right. Will Brian paint for a fee?
