knock on wood and 18months later I have zero issues with my chiller and I have no problem with reaching tracey when I need or want. I didn't realize there was someone who was happy with the paint work they got there james. lets not start the rx bash again as we all know there was some good work that came out of there along with the bad. maybe I was a lucky one.

When I tell you that it's your fault, I'm only joking. It isn't your fault. It's JR's fault...LOL. j/k

A bunch of us were at Gators during a Lake Mary Steak N Shake cruise in. JR mentioned a special that was being run in the forums vendor section about wet sanding the orange peel off of the cars for a pretty low price (can't remember). The ad also said they offered painted, no transition stripes. I have a copy of it in a folder in my desk.

I replied to the ad after doing a little research.

I found an article about a Corvette they did. Here's a link: http://www.vetteweb.com/features/vem..._corvette_z06/

After seeing the paint on that Corvette, I had full confidence they could handle what I was asking them to do.

There are plenty of speed shops that do full custom builds including paint. Pro Street Customs right around the corner from me is one of the best I've ever seen, as well as the shop that built my fathers '31 Ford Sedan and my mothers '32 Ford pick up.

I'm not ready...I'm taking half a day off to install my calipers, fuel rail flip, tunnel brace, and repair a little wiring. My car is filthy too.

Rob, you may want to upgrade to Dot4 fluid. Lucky you, off early. I have to work until 6:00 then finish prep for tommorow. Hope all goes well with your projects today.
