since i can't figure out how to post all the pics at once on this damn forum. i'll just show you the end result from all the hard labor my friends and i put into my car this winter and spring. we installed the body kit. moulded the side skirts and rear bumper. then for the last week we painted it up. my friend hand laid the flames and painted it with white pearl for the ghost effect. the color is a kandy color. the base coat was a very bright silver , almost like a chrome and the top coat is an orange essence,then 3 coats of clear.this is how she looked when we pulled her out of the paint booth this morning...

Check out northeast forum...the June meet thread has all the info...its june 12th
total cost of paint job is right around 5000.00. im lucky enough to manage a body shop at a dealership so the paint was given to me for free by our distributor. but living in PA if you were to come here and ask for something similar it would be right around 5g's.
that is soo weird i live in eastern pa and by my work there is another orange celica with a custom paint job and everything is taking off it like yours example it has no headlights or tails in. it cant be yours though because you are like 3 hours away lol so weird...
very nice, i live in north eastern PA (near wilkes-barre) my aim is mxsuperfly25 in case anyone lives around there. NE peolple hit up the northeast board! theres a meet soon!
GTSaint,its ppg color, RadianceII----basecoat is sterling silver and topcoat is orange glow. You can really pick any basecoat you want and get any variety of colors as you probably already know. i was told the house of kolor basecoats will actually "shimmer" more than ppgs though.
Thank you.: Props to Zen Motorsports for an outstanding job on the Turbo fabrication, and Props to Hass Autoworks for hooking me up with so many sweet parts, You guys Rock!
