Where are you at now in the VIN sequence?

Thanks, I can't wait!! Sooooo close! Mine is 19933 btw. I was hoping for 20000... that would've been pretty sweet But really I don't care about the number, just the car!

Yup, I think because the photoshop color was not the best determination and people were skeptical, I was a little also. We all took a risk, and now that we have ours, we are glad we chose this color. The color looks a million times better in person. I think folks are going to regret not getting this color.

wait, dont you then get 70% tint to be legal? not 30%? ny has one of the strictest tint laws, so 70% is like nothing, not even noticeable. We may just do it dark like 35% and just pay the tickets if we get them. $35 i think, which sucks but whatcha gonna do.

Never been a big fan of racing stripes, but I liked the look of the LeMans style hash marks and wondered what they would look like on ABM.

So I painted fixxer56's Camaro...hope he doesn't mind.

or even better, done by venom i think.

[MustangConvert]

So the question becomes; What color?

black, white, silver, dark blue, red...?

[Ferrarimk13]

if we get the car, we're going white, but black is pretty badass i gotta say.

Nope, don't mind a bit...that's why I post here..I "borrowed" from others too
it looks a bit like the Tom Henry blue SS with the silver LeMans stripes. I was just thinking about doing this myself and adding the front and rear blackout kits from Ridergraphix www.ridergraphix.com
