I can't believe these VX paint jobs

Too bad he doesn't spend as much time on his cladding as he did on the paint job. Personally I just can't get into airbrushing a car, waaaayyyy too "Pimp My Ride" cheesy for me. I do think those matte finishes they have are pure genius though.

Yes, Floyd. What you said. Always, a must have. I have always been a Wall addict.

And.... still debating the Chevrolet Orange paint. Have been for years. No crazy airbrushed murals though. I like smooth and sleek. The shop that did some custom paint for my STi said they would love to do it, but in all honesty, I just wish a shop would let me borrow some space and their booth so I can do it myself, heh. I have never trusted anyone doing an all-over but me.... cause I was always an egotistical auto painter.

Ebony to fiery pumpkin!!!!

wormgod, you sound like me!...

I was an autobody repair and paint tech for over 20 years before my back disentegrated on me... ;(

Over the next couple weeks, we will be in the process of moving, but once settled in, I really want to attack the VX to give her a facelift. So, with any luck, she will be all fresh lookin' for the new year!

My plan is this...

I already have the color mixed up (blue/green/purple) so that WILL go on it...
The cladding color will be called: "graphite"
And before I saw this thread, I was already planning this, but I'm thinking 'bout covering everything in the satin/matte finish... I've been wanting to do a full paint like that for years!
