I took my car in for the police package I had going (aka, black front fender) Paint shop said she'd be done today. Anxiously awaiting......

Woohoo! No embarrassing black fender jokes at WCBF!

get her back! Looks good. Did a darn good job color matching. got pretty close, esp. for 13 year old white car with 180k miles. They tried to put on the molding peice and failed, but not too bad. I'll adjust it later when I put the splash gaurd back on. Here are the pics:


The difference is more noticable once closer up.



Got new shades too. More pics later once I get some more little mods done and give her a good wash and wax.

Where did you find those shades?! Nice paint job, looks a lot classier than the black panel.
