Or rather already did. But preparing to hear it on here.
Yes, I descrated the Comp Orange. Had a damaged fender and rather than
just repaint, I let the paint shop do their thing. I love the results.
Before and After...

I mean to each his own. I think its a nice looking car. Its those die hard CO fans that would probably say different. Its like when someone takes the 4-eyed stang and puts on a 91 front facia...people just go mad. I am sure you turn many heads with that car.

I agree!!! I think that car is HAWT!!:drool::drool:
and funny thing is I normally don't care for that color. I think the flames do it for me!! I have always liked that look when it is tasteful and not over the top.:mick:

That is an amazing paint job!!! :mick: Very nice indeed, and I 2nd the call for more pics! :drool:
If the die hards don't like it, that's too bad. It's yours, so if your happy we should all be happy for you :D It's just paint that could easily be put back.....it's not like you cut the roof off and destroyed it.

The color is House of Kolor "Sunset Pearl" base coat.
We were originally going to try and use Kandy paints, but the orange background was simply too much, they mutated and turned dark brown
(good thing I had the shop spray a test panel first).
The red at the flame edge is good ole' Kandy Apple.
I can't say enough about this painter. Aaron Wacholz (Xtreme-Paint and Auto Body - Wyoming MN). Can bet I will be displaying his business
cards at next years car shows.

A test panel is a must ( sometimes several) for any custom work.
