Default Car's back from paint. Here are the first few pics

Here are the first few pictures of the car, now that it's back from paint. There are still a few things they'll have to fix when it goes back on Monday but at least it's a start.

Looks terrific!!! Same question as jbailer: are you going to piant the chin spoiler and I'll add; the mirrors too? I got a spare bumper cover and am fabricating in the CDC agressive c-spoiler; I'll be doing the combined fascia in the same yellow as the leading edge of my hood; I think I'll like it better than the black bumper cover; wasn't sure at the time I had the flames done. I'll tell you, the fit on the CDC c-spoiler is extraodinary but I got a few tips for some folks who will be doing one of these; I did see a couple flaws in the design and prescribed installation; where you can inprove the install and ultimate look, etc.

Thanks for the feedback. No, I don't plan on painting the front spoiler or mirrors at this time; The front spoiler will probably get its fair share of scrapes on the underside once the car is lowered and I don't want to be constantly re-painting it. As for the mirrors, I'll wait to see if an aftermarket company comes up with a mirror more appropriate to the overall scheme of the car (possibly a bit sleeker, more retro looking). I just don't think these look right so I don't see any reason to spend the money painting them.

No problem at all. The holes left from the GT emblem are perpendicular to each each so the Shelby emblem covers them easily.
