Grats on the ABM's everyone... One day it will be me posting a picture or at least I hope so anyway..

The dealership's service was able to buff most of the scratch out, it looks 10x better. Now all they have to do is order me the touch-up paint since ABM is a new color, but it takes about a week and a half for it to get here. :(

Rat farts, I was hoping you'd just give it to me.

This may be the best I can do with photoshop to replicate what I see with my own eyes. Probably still off, though... I say the Chevy image gives a pretty accurate depiction of the range of colors in the paint.

Venom, Just Beautiful, congrats man!

VenomZ302 · 08-15-2009, 04:32 PM

Chevyman1200 · 08-16-2009, 12:53 PM

I kept the front and back blackouts like the SEMA LS7, took off the white hood stripes put on by Rider Graphix. Blacked out the front and rear bowties. Looking to add gill accents soon, possibly those from emblempros or defenderworx.Still trying to decide. Order the hockey sticks for yours yet?

jimcar2 · 08-16-2009, 01:48 PM

Incredible color, there were so many different ABM pictures I wasn"t sure what color it was going to be until I saw it, window tint yesterday.

geminidreams · 08-16-2009, 01:50 PM

Gotcha. I'd love to see some updated pictures with the blackouts!

I think I'm going to order the hockey sticks in the middle of this week. I also want to install the thin black gill stripes that fit into the part the makes the indentation (if that made sense). Saw them on a SIM SS at a local dealer and that sealed the deal for me.

I have a few, but I'll take some better shots than the ones I have later today. Post them tomorrow after work.
