Thanx man. As a matter of fact I'm getting the window strips painted:



It'll all be ready tomorrow (the window strips, louvers, and pony emblems).

Just call, and ask for Gary, he shipped mine half way across the country, and i got it in 4 days. Good service, when i got mine he said he had one left so i hope he still has some more.

please post pics of that. I have seen it done once on a vista blue IMO it just did not look right but part of that was because it was a less than par paint job.


black on black should be fine even if a portion is not masked well

sorry but it was on the ford lot about 6months ago and i did not think to get pics

If i remember right the upper rear corners where the molding bends and stars going down the door was the bad area. The upper edge between the molding and the body was not masked well enough and you could see a small line of black molding[/align]

I have got to say that I am honored that you valued my opinion on that.

as long as you have a very good paint shop you probably wouldn't have had any thing to worry about. specially being Black on Black. I would defiantly stay away from doing it on a light colored car like mine IMO on my car i like the black strip it helps brake up the color.[/align]
