Any updates? How long of a downtime are you expecting/how long is it really taking to get the whole thing painted?

took some pics today. everything is painted. they are just wetsanding a lot. it doesn't do the car justice. looks good.

For some of you guys not familiar with wetsanding, it will look very dull like that in the pics. after the buff, the true shine will come back out. it will be VERY slick and reflect back a lot of light.

everything you see with paint hasn't been wetsanded. everything you see dull has been wetsanded.

should be out by the end of this week. i'll have it on the weekend. i'm installing some suspension parts before i fully drive it around though.












my friend's new challenger srt8 for good measure.
