Bold!

And not just the color... you`ve got more nerve than me.

From the pictures the paint looks flawless, congratulations. I hope it`s that good in real life.

On its own, it`s a little shocking... I`d like to see it as part of a whole interior `theme`(accents in the seats, etc.)

Good for you.

Looks real good man, what steps did you use? what paint? do you plan on doing more? you know you can do the vents too it dosn't affect how it works, just take them apart all the way... but anyways i am impressed... very good job.

thanks guys for all the compliments. nice to do sumthin & hear some positive feedback from it. took me a while to finally build up the nerve to do it, but i'm glad that i finally did. im gonna sand it back down and put a coat of a darker color (almost burgundy) cuz it doesn't quite match the paint on my truck.

i wouldnt say clash, but it jus doesnt match. the flash makes it a lil brighter than it really is, but it doesnt match nonetheless. but i like it, jus needs to be perfected
