gary did you talk to the paiter at all? i was just wondering if there are any dirt nibs in the car from painting ? when you paint a car with gloss clear and it gets a dirt nib from the booth or from the painter the nib can be wet sended and buffed out after it's baked but you can't bufff flat clear so the paint job has to come out super clean.. iv only painted underhoods and the insides of fenders witht flat clear never a hole car,hopefully mines first.iv never had the chance to look up close for nibs on a nice flat pat job every flat color car or truck iv seen was done with a spary can..

I'm real happy with the way it turned out. Linh did a great job! We got to see it happen in stages as he went and it think it looks awesome.
