Default Got the Burban back from bodyshop

Here she is...went with dark red LED tails instead of the black look, got the bumper plastic painted to match, as well as the D-pillars. Looks like they forgot to put one of those rubber grommets behind the gas door to hold it out so I'll have to do that....

At first I wasnt crazy about the pillars but they have grown on me. I still need to debadge and probably paint that upper black piece above the back glass.....and I know she doesnt want a drop and wheels but the more I look at it.......the more I think itll happen.....Whatcha think?

Heres before:


And heres after:






And just for kicks heres a pretty cool aston martin I saw today in town


And what would this thread be without me whoring it up with a pic of mine


Also heres progress of Skeets truck. Shaved 3rd brake light and gas door, and everything black on the truck is getting painted red tomorrow. Then hopefully we can get the whole truck sprayed within a few weeks. That gas door area is gonna look slick with paint, even the bodyman was jealous of his own work LOL

'Burb looks good. Of course, since you just posted pics, I predict it will be totalled in less than a week. Curse of the color & net.
