Default To the Paint Shop...

Bringing the 66 to the paint shop tomorow. I was going to do a garage paint job, but I don't have the time, or the desire, so off to the shop....

I will say how much it cost after it is done.....

JMD - Can't wait to see before/after shots. If anyone knows of a good place to go in the DFW area that's reasonable, love to hear about that too!

I did all the labor myself, just the paint and materials cost me $1400.00 I shot it with RM Diamont, tri-stage... the white is like the new infiniti's-lexus's... kinda has a silver/diamond pearl in it.
