RE: Check out my stripes
The whole paint job is about $10,000 but you have to conside in that he is painitng and installing the entire Cervini's C Series kit, Painting the stripes, putting a red pearl coat over the stripes, painting the fiberglass box for the subs, all for show quality look.
Stripes alone w/ out the pearl coat would have been $1500 - $2500 is what I think he said.
Because of the kit and the stripes the only part of the car not being painted is the doors, since the hood and kit have to be blended into the fenders and rear quarter panels, and of course the rest is all getting something. I should have the car back Thursday night so I can have more pics up probably this weekend.

RE: Check out my stripes
OK so I have a few more pics I will post as soon as I getdone with my homework for class ... god dam adv. C++ bull ****....
Anyway, the quality of all the parts were superb, great fitment and everything, the guy doing my bodywork has the C Series hood, front bumper and window scoops and he said his were in great shape too. Honestly everyone I talked to said they loved the quality.
The outside of the car will be done late tomorrw night, so I will have some pics of the exterior then, but the next mornin it has to go backto the audio shop so they can put the box back in and get all the subs and amps wired up.
I'm takin the car to NOPI in atlanta, I also have a set of foose nitrous black w/ polished lip wheels coming for the car, should be here tomorrow 20x8.5 f and 20x10 r.
I have Rotora sponsoring the car so they are hookin me up with a 15" front big brake key
and upgraded rear rotors, and I am waiting on CDC to ship me the trunk clam shell, hood struts, and sequential tails i ordered, then all I plan to get is a nice intake, throttlebody, headers, and maybe a nitrous kit i dunno.
