Pics - Custom Paint

I thought I would post these pics of the custom paint work I recently had done on my 06 MCS. It took 4 coats of clear to bury the stripes! Anyone else dabbling in the paint out there? Let's see!!!

Great job! I love how the roof and stripes match and bringing in the red as an accent... playing off the red "S" logos and the reflectors/tail lights... Well thought out and executed!

The front grills are sold by M7 under the name "The Ultimate Grill" and I think a few other places sell 'em as well. The are manufactured (at least they were a while ago when I got my lower grill from Moss) by Grillcraft.

The front scoops look like Oricari scoops.

Orange with black top would have been really nice. I mean the Orage color Porsche is using on the 911 GT3 RS.

Wow, very nice. I like it, and it matches the curbs in the background.

So, he could park at a red curb and the police wouldn't notice the car.

I like the front bumper, and the side skirts are very nice as well. Where did this picture come from? Very cool!
