Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

Either go all the way around or don't paint the trim at all. It'd look good if it was painted all the way around.
 


The tails are polished. I cant get them any better than that for some reason. If I messed them up it's a good thing I used bad tails. They were both full of water.

And yes I will be going all the way around with the silver.
 
lul...crispy.

Anywho...its called wetsanding...look into it. If you didn't polish them that way...then there was something wrong with the paint.
 


Here she is as she sits today. Gonna Wash her sometime in the next week. Keeping my eye out for Bumpers and Hood. If you have a yard new you with them in my color or are getting rid of parts of your own in this color give me a shout.

Looks good it reminds me of a regal actually. Put some silver rims on there lower it a d you will be set!
 
I like it, silver helped quite a bit in my book, rims are a must now. The tails not so sure but I can't see them in person so I won't judge those
 
the two tone isnt bad honestly. but i cant stand special edition rims nor the painted grill.

im waiting to see what else youre gonna do to it.
 


I felt the need of an update.

As of May 21st, I did my tranny swap and I have reverse. Before I post those pics here are some other things I've been up to while I was waiting on my friend to say he could help me.

First I tinted the already leaking taillights to hide the water. Decided to try something a little strange....

Then I got some Special Edition wheels for a steal. 100 for all 4.
Also Painted the sides Silver.

With 169k I didnt expect to have it's first tranny in it still. But this confirmed it for me.

I dont have any pics since I've put it back on the ground. I washed and waxed it yesterday but With all the crap falling off of the trees it looks like crap again. Have to say I wouldn't have been brave enough to do this if I hadn't done it 4 times on the old SHO.
 
i think you should paint the front facisa the color of the blue on your car. but its looks good as it is. CHANGE THE WHEELS THOUGH. i have the same wheels they are ugly!. they would be better MAYBE if they were bigger but sadly they arnt. or you can powder coat them, make it a experiment see how it would pan out.
