um you sure that story is true, and he didn't just crack your paint because it wasn't hot enough.

It's pretty easy to try and rush the rolling and crack some paint.

No I was there with him the whole time.....he is a good guy. You could tell because the paint didnt crack...the fender did lol. A piece is actually missing because it cracked off....metal wouldn't do that. It slightly cracked and he asked if I wanted to keep going and he told me id prob chipp off...which it did.

I'll try getting in touch with him again. If he doesn't reply, I'm calling DOHS & telling them he's a terrorist.

I was telling the guy that's going to fix the Z about that. Said it depends on how they mix something. Said adjusts the blue/purpleness of it.

well what sucked was that i had to track down the bodyshop that painted, get the can they used. luckily they still had the can but no paint. so the bodyshop ended up sending the bumper to du pont and they matched the paint flawlessly. but i really like the color in certain lighting the car has a very faint purple hue to it and the blue is very deep and a little darker than the factory daytona blue.
