looks good, I like the concept, but about the only thing I have done different was to take the extra time and have the two tone run through the handles aswell.

a little tip for you guys though. When masking the windows, try trimming OR folding the paper under its self and having one clean Flat tape mask around the outside. doing this helps to keep the amount of dust in your job down (yes I can see it in the black) it also helps to reduse the amount of tape used in the masking prosses

Thanx for the advice on the windows...we had a couple laborers that were helpin doin the b*tch work lol


but as for the handles we only sprayed them like that cuz he'* putting chrome covers over them...we split it underneath the handles so you can still see it there when the covers are on

Thanx again tho

As soon as I fix my car and save $1200 I'll be there faster than a jackrabbit with butter pat shoes over a hot griddle over Texas. (get the Spongebob reference?)

This isn't Bonneville related. Off to the Lounge.

I was checking out the "Magnum" pics in the stripes. and seeing what looked like a bad paint bleed. Then I enlarged to full pic and it looks good.


Looks great Kev, keep up the good work, let us know how the grill comes out .

try the lower section in vertical grill as well.

Cool but not a fan of the HUGE magnum plastered on the side.
