16 week wait was well worth it. Warning large pics

My first deal fell through but my second arrived a few days ago. I asked the dealer not to prep the car so I could be sure they wouldn't scratch up the paint. Took me over 11 hours to wash, clay, wax, install splash guards, painted engine cover, locking lugs and new grille.

I'm sure she will be very happy in her new home.





Here she is with her new grille, shes begging for her new lower inserts.



I had the engine cover painted to match the car.

Glad I could help. I really liked the Hemi orange but decided on the magnesium to match the paint. I think it looks classy.

I'll post pics of my California Walnut dash kit when I get it installed.

Just awesome! Same color I ordered about 4 years ago! at least it feels like it. Where did you get the paint for the cover? Id like to order from the same place.
Well done, very classy.

Actually I have a friend who works at the local Chevy dealer. He had the guy in his body shop paint it and my splash guards for $150 including the paint.

That engine cover looks great, matches the inner fenders.......a natural!

Could we see a picture of the painted splash guards on the car?
