Hey Todd,
I'm not far from Maryland, I'll be down with my car for you to do next, ok?
That is one sweet looking car. Man I hope to see it someday if your at Maple or Cecil....

Re: winter changes/upgrades
This weekend I worked on gathering the stuff the body shop will need. I did a quick mockup of the doors & front end so it's less to haul when delivering the car. Pretty much ready to go.
Today I drove around to a couple new car dealers looking at paint colors. I am pretty much set on metallic silver, but wanted to see if there's anything else worth considering. I wound up finding two light blue metallics I likes, so we will probably do a couple quick spray-out cards to help narrow the decision.

While I'm posting, here's the two new colors I found today.
This first one is a 2011 Ford Escape and the color is called Steel Blue Metallic. This one has a real nice metallic in it compared to the second one I'll post.
This second color is on a 2011 Chevy Silverado truck and the color is called Blue Granite Metallic. I have noticed this one for a while as a neighbor has a truck this color.

Re: winter changes/upgrades
The second chevy truck blue is at the bottom of my list. It just doesn't have much "pop" or "flare" compared to the first one. Will probably drop that one off the list.
Re: winter changes/upgrades
I got a message from my buddy at the body shop that next week is looking good to deliver the car to his shop.

Darker colors are more "Stealth" like in the traps at night.

Re: winter changes/upgrades
Well today I dropped the car off at the body shop. Can't wait to see the body back in color again, but the color decision still needs to be made. lol
Also, a new front bumper is on the way, should be here the first of the week. Once it arrives, I'll need to take it to the body shop so we can do the mockup and fitting.
Here's the same bumper mocked up on Eric Kenwards Malibu wagon.

I asked that guy on the bullet about Nova bumpers and he didn't even reply, guess those aren't popular enough to bother with? Looks good Todd...

My only guess is Eric is swamped with his regular work plus this new fiberglass venture. I'm sure they will add to their line as time goes bye.John_Heard wrote:I asked that guy on the bullet about Nova bumpers and he didn't even reply, guess those aren't popular enough to bother with?
