Dropped off Captain American this morning for his additional color. The guys at the body shop were like "DAYUM!!!" lol My buddy orig painted the car 12 years ago and his jaw dropped when I pointed out it's been that long. lol

Depends on the "smack factor." I have free reign to smack the painter around, so the more I smack him, the faster it will be done! :mrgreen: Nah, I figure about a week. They are slow at the moment, and the guys at the shop love me! 8-)

Are they pretty confident that they will be able to match the paint?

No paint matching required! All the work I'm getting done is gonna be in flat black. It's gonna kinda have a vibe like this AMX:

Well, since my buddy Fat Brain is always ready to whip out his camera for me, I'm sure we'll have some hot shots once the work is done!
