Dude. They missed a whole bunch of spots.

Looks good - where did you have it done? I'm on the hunt for a bodyshop (got a couple good leads).

Where did it get painted at? Location? the bench in the first pic says N. Mecklenburg and Cornelius..which is down from me. I would like to see this in person if it is in NC.
As a painter I can imagine and appreciate the time that went into that!!

the car was build and paint in miami we are from miami but he took the car to n.c. Because the painter previosly lived in n.c so i let him take the car to show his work upther...it took him 320 hr of labor from start to finish ....very radical art work ..center of attention everywhere i go ...lot of fun check out the process of the paint @ www.myspace.com/airkolors click on pics and go to the botton of the page...thanks

Mind if I ask how much the job cost you?

The car is badass and is definitely unique. Props for doing something different to such a unique car.

thanks waldog...the artist charges $40.00 per hr. He put 320hrs. Into the car from star to finish do the math ...he is a god friend and we made a deal so the final prize was$5000.00 high quality paint (house of kolors) and 2 galons of clear...

Post up some higher resolution pictures. I actually like it (reminds me of a terminator T800 with parts of the skin blown off), BUT needs much nicer/harder wheels and more drop to run with that look though. The cheap wheels ruin it.

Outstanding! I have seen AirKolors work on other cars in the past - Always Exquisite. Never had a chance to meet him though. As a Fellow Turbo FB owner, I appreciate the work he has into his.
