There's just something about a car when the body and paint work on it are optically correct.

 

Holy **** that is nice Alex!!

 

Simply Bad ***!!!! Can't wait to see it all together. Great job guys.

 

Stunning. Absolutly stunning.

 

Lace jobs have never been my thing, but MAN, that is sweeeeeeeeet!

 

Very nice Alex. How are them finger tips after all that sanding?

 

Gorgeous

 

Just study the pics. There is a wealth of info to make up your own little tech how-to in your own head...

Great job guys. This really kinda gives a clue as to how much work is involved.

Holy **** that thing is so bad***!!! That will be the talk of the show no matter where you are, were, or are going!

 

Im speachless
Completely Awsome!
And thanks for the paint booth idea, I will place that in the cranium file.

 

When Satan sends me to hell, he'll make me wet sand for all eternity.

Looks ****ing incredibubble!

 

WOOOOOOW

At first I thought the lace was a little too striking.

Then after the candy fades etc, it looked a lot more subtle, but I thought it looked a little hazy and 'smudged' from the distance shots.

but NOW - ****E ! Its got the CLARITY and DEFINITION as well as the 'blendiness'.

BUT TELL ME - WHY T F would you lick the sand paper when you could lick that wet-lookin paint ?? (let alone lick carpet???)

Uhm...where's the wiper valance panel hiding?
Looking sweet guys.

 

Hey guys, That is lookin' sooooooo good!!!!!

Top notch as usual from Gambino Kustoms.

 

The car looks amazing outside! You had better drive it to Columbus Kirk, I need to see this car!

As for a tech, a tech from you is helpful anytime, not just during tech week. I definitely need to learn a thing or five before I flake my little Ranchero roof!

Keep up the great work!
