Brent... good choice of first car! You're absolutely right. Most people would've gotten him a small compact car. And we know how that would've turned out. Glad everyone is okay. What are his plans now?

Mike... nice job he did on your reverse lights. I looked at your link. He obviously doesn't use VHT nightshades considering the comment he made in his sample pics. Any idea what he does? Or does he prefer to keep the process secret?

Chris... Is someone actually trying to sell that "hot" car?

We had thunderstorms here this morning also. Thunder and lightning, the whole works. Didn't mind the rain this morning since there was some bird crap on the Monte that needed to be washed off anyway.

They honestly look like they were made this way. It's amazing. I've seen plenty of VHT and thought it looked nice... and honestly now I think those VHT ones look bad after seeing the clarity of this.

AFAIK he sands down everything then uses black paint thinned out, a couple light coats, and then clears it.
