Ditto Steve, You did a fantastic job! I'm very impressed with both the overall finish and your attention to detail.

And Jerry, thank you for all the work to make this paint available to us! This looks like a game changer for some tired looking LT5s out there!

Regards,
Mark

Yeah that came out absolutely awesome!
I have an extra room, and all the beer and food you want....

Spray can? Hmmm...

Looks like a pro job. You're just not wantin' to let on how much they took for the job?

Beautiful job Steve!

You don't have to make any apologizes for being a "spray can job", as that is closer to "factory" than most higher dollar jobs!

Yes that's a magnifying lamp helped alot my eyes are old like me!

Last coat on cam covers

I know one screw cover came off...I'll touch it up when I do the lettering.
I'll give it a few days to dry and polish as I did the plenum.

The lettering on the cam covers was a challenge on the car.
