That one. Anybody know where he got his paint job done? And what the approximate cost of it was?

[meissen]

Him and his buddy painted it, not sure of cost.

Oh, shit. I hope I meet someone in college that's good at custom paint.

Instead of getting a Cobalt SS SC in the spring like I was planning (it might be too difficult because of college and everything), there's a good chance my car will be complete spruced up: hood, spoiler, body kit, paint job, stripes, rims, etc. Hopefully this'll all be done by summer/fall '07.

Uggh I hate 20" rims. They might as well just drive right on the rims. You gotta have some rubber. Paint is kinda cool though.

All that stuff will probably cost as much as a Cobalt!

He did it himself. He is also the guy that did the paint on my car. he did an extremely satisfactory job on it, and said to refer people so i will PM you his number if you want to give him a call. he's a stand up guy and he stands behind his work too. the red paint you see in the end of the flames on his car is the same color he did my hood scoop with... kandy apple red.

Here's a write-up of my exterior plans...

• Sunoco Style Bolt-on Hood ($550 + S&H)
• SS Spoiler ($180 + S&H)
• Xenon Front Clip (About $215 shipped)
• Extreme Dimensions Side Skirts ($240 + S&H)
• Extreme Dimensions Rear Bumper ($299 + S&H)
• Clear Rear Bumper Markers (About $33 shipped)
• Eclipse Fuel Door (Not real expensive, but not sure of price)
• 18" Chrome C6 Motorsport Rims ($900 shipped)
• Silver Camaro windshield banner ($25 shipped)
• T-tops? (about $400-450 shipped for entire kit off Ebay Motors)

So the total comes to (at maximum)... about $2900 plus shipping on some, paint, paint job, and tires. However, the rims and t-tops can always wait (momentarily knocking off the cost of tires and $1300-1350), along with a few of the other things.

Oh, and for a paint job, I'm thinking this... I already have silver/metallic blue calipers, right? Okay. So I'm going to get the entire car painted a metallic silver. Then, I'll have a center stripe (going up the cowl, starting at the base of it) fade from metallic blue to silver with a solid metallic blue line around the entire cowl (get what I'm saying?). Then the stripe will also be on the rear deck and spoiler in the same fashion, but fading silver toward the back windshield.

And one last thing/edit lol.. If I'm not able to find aftermarket fenders (read: ones with a scoop like C5 Corvettes), I'm contemplating getting a hockey stripe down the side in the same fashion.. surrounded by a blue line fading from blue (in the front) to silver (in the back)...

I'd like to Photoshop this whole thing.. Maybe I'll take some time to soon.

sounds like a great idea! Can't wait to see a photoshop

[pHEnomIC]

I talked to him about it. He did it himself w/ the help of a friend who had a bit of artistic ability to help with the flames. It is kandy kolors. If you want to get ahold of him search sson20s on camaroz28 and his name is chevyboy or something. You can pm him.

my wife almost bought that car last year at superfest,but someone out bid us by $5000 and then didn't come thru.

[SoulTerror]

The paint on the car is House of Kolor Kandys. The base coat is Orion Silver with a little bit of Ice Pearl mixed in . The front of the car is Kandy Tangerine and then fades to Kandy Apple Red. Thes is also a hint of Kandy Purple in the tips of the flames. The flames are buried under 10 coats of clear and wet sanded with 6 different grits of paper then buffed to a mirror image.

that was posted on the cardomain page.

[JoeliusZ28]

wow, sounds like quite a project you have ahead of yourself. im having a hard time picturing it all, a photoshop would definitely help.

[NOS2006]

Yeah, I'm looking for good pics of cars w/ the Sniper body kit and I'll photoshop it out from there..

[NOS2006]

Woohoo! Talked to Alan at the SLP meet on Gratiot on Sunday and he pretty much told me that he could paint my car.. just to contact him and let him know when!

[jjsnyprus]

paint job

that guy is really cool to talk to. he said he could do my camaro, when i had it, for around 4000. i met him on leave from iraq. the black ss clone is my old car, needed some tlc back then so i sold it to someone willing to give it to her. i didnt wanna waste more monet on it. i would get my car painted from him any day.
