I really need to get rid of this VSII hood. My new one will be delivered any day now. $300 is half of what you will pay anywhere else, not to mention the hood pins.

I want to give some gold stars to Shine Auto Project. Really great customer service and they are giving me the CF diffuser for the same price of an FRP one. Another $200 dollars put back in my pocket.

Trying to work out a deal with Fishers Auto (the guys who are fixing my wheels) to paint my whole car matte white. Has anyone cracked open their headlights before? I will need some help with mine come February. I want to open them up and paint the inside white as well...

It's been a few months since I did anything for my car and I thought my fever had been cured. I was wrong..... lol

Nah I won't be back in the states until february.

My brother-in-law works at capital and he deals with fisher on a daily basis which is why I'm getting some good deals. Still waiting for them to give me a quote though. I havn't seen any custom paint work from them and now you have me worried... I'm going to stay up late tongiht and give them a call

I didn't know all star had a paint booth. Shoot me a quote. The front bumper is new and might require some prep. Other than that I want everything sprayed. side mirrors, door handles, CF hood, etc...

Then I'll go back myself and add some matte black 3M to the roof, the vents in my hood, the flares on the front and rear bumper as well as the bottom of the side skirts and not sure but possibly mirrors and door handles.

If I can't get the whole thing sprayed and done RIGHT for less than $2,500 then I'll just keep it like it is and have the bumper sprayed to match...

O yes... every all star dealership has a collision center. we are actually one of the best/most popular shops in BR. ill see if i can get u a quote. can u PM your vin so the quote is more detailed? i can guarantee the quote will prolly be higher than fisher or some other but on the same note we are also PAINTING the sticker stripes on the new SS's. so you may pay a bit but its for sure right with a LIFETIME warranty on paint.

I can, but I am in the New Orleans area. You will probably find some one closer.
