Default Finally...Home from the paint shop

I had a lot of rock chips and wanted painted on stripes, so I bit the bullet and had the Stang painted. I wanted to stay with the red leather interior theme and carried it through to the stripes. I am really enjoying the new look. Can't wait until the curing period is over so I can get some wax on it.

Looks great! If I did this I wouldn't ever want to drive it again. I would definitely do the clear protective film behind the rear tire area. How long did they say to wait for the paint curing?

Thanks Ford-a-tude! They said 30 days. Man it's hard to wait that long to get some protection on it.

Looks great!
FYI, They have a thin clear bra that can be installed on the front end to protect the car from rocks/debris. A club member has the clear bra on his GT500 and you don't even notice it's on there. =-)
