Solaracop....


Now you need the Andy Griffith chrome searchlight and handle on the drivers door.....



Bwaaaaaaaahhhhhh ha ha ha ha!!!


Seriously, I think it looks TIGHT! Hard to really SEE the top half in the darker photos.... makes the car look like it's really "low" or something.

Could you post better daytime pics?

Duffman, actually you're the first. I gotten skunk and double stuffed oreo though lol.. It's all good, a paint job like this is more points at car shows than stock.

thanks bro i thought about having the black between the creases of the hood but i didn't think it would go well with the black headlights, black grille, and fogs.

I laughed at the shamu part, youve never seen my car, you might be thinking of my white one. While mine is stock (no trd kit) i have plenty of mods inlcuding hids like you mentioned, trd muffler and trd rsb. Thats all i desire to have done to my car. Good luck with future plans!

The one nice thing about this paint job is you have a change in color, without really having to repaint the engine bay, door creases, jambs, etc. I would like to change the entire color, but worried about affording to paint the parts mentioned above. So, this is a very practical color change as well!
