He has a lot of vehicles lol, you'd have to ask Brandon or Charles himself on specifics

Thanks buddy, really appreciate it . You really helped get my TB to look like i've wanted it to for a very long time with the drop. She looks a lot different from when it was almost stock

It's a rare sight lol

Such a difference now

Huge difference. Looks good though. Stock is overrated. Who wants a vehicle that looks like everyone else's ride.

Exactly, for car people their vehicle is an expression of themselves, it's like art

 

[BlazingTrails]

Very well stated

Next big thing for my TB's appearance is the full size dip job. Can't decide between Satin black or Gloss Black. And whether or not to have some areas have a cool pattern like these maybe? But on very small scale and maybe only on one area of the vehicle

That's Plastidip bro, trust me. I get all these kinda pics straight from DYC themselves or other Plastidip enthusiast pages

 

[BlazingTrails]

well that would be pretty easy to do, i used to that to my honda all the time

Yeah it's simple to do, if I do decide to do some sort of pattern after a full dip, i'll let you in on the project

 

[BlazingTrails]

ooooooo thank you master

 

[Capote]

You'd have to come down to me though for that one so we can Plastidip in the paint booth at the Auto Skills Center

Satin FTW

 

[BlazingTrails]

It's nicer to have a lot of free room when painting or dipping

 

[BlazingTrails]

Very true, unfortunately we can probably come down there sometime when we don't have the kids. Brandy has a friend that lives on your base she wants to see soon

Finally did the trim that under the doors, now it matches the rest of the gloss black trim, makes the whole look much better

 

[BlazingTrails]

[Capote]

The parking lot is really looking horrible considering I've messed it up over 2yrs My neighbors car leaks oil, and you know mine is slowely leaking from somewhere, which we still gotta take a look at underneath. Out infront of my unit is tons of overspray on the floor walls

 

[BlazingTrails]

[Capote]
