Got the vert painted, new pics!

Thanks to Corey and John from Explicit Autobody for doing such a nice job, especially the amout of care they put into getting the metal perfectly smooth before spraying. There are a couple flaws here and there, but nothing that can't be buffed out perfect or touched up. The nose was a pita to fit, but they did a good job with what they had.

Color is Lotus Chili Red, and man does it pop! The pearl is just incredible, and the high-end clear they used is deep and rich. The shine will only get better as I let it cure, wet sand and buff any imperfections, and get some wax on it.

Enjoy the pics!
