Need ideas, painting things
Just dropped my car off at my painters place..... need some ideas to help me finish my car.
Here's a side view.
As you can see I painted my factory rims black and the calipers Lambo lime green. Now I'm going to black out the door handles and side chrome trim with gloss black paint. The ///AMG on the rims are getting painted lime green. The trunk lid chrome strip is getting painted gloss black. The badges are getting painted gloss black.
The front end has the 1-fin grille and I really like it... eventually I might paint the inside of my headlights black... my painter wants to do it but doesn't know the exact way to take them apart and what not to paint
I think adding green to the front will be too much...

Very minor overspray... car is my dd and everything I do to it is time sensitive. The overspray on the engine is being covered by the engine cover piece that we DID take off the car

Yup.... the MB logo popped off the engine cover and MB wants me to buy the whole engine cover for $250. So I took the cover off and we're fiberglassing the hole smooth and painting it lime too.... debating putting a black MB logo or doin' a custom KP logo
