It’s a beautiful thing.
Amazing job by the guys at !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! .
Skip to 11:46 in the video above for the peel-n-reveal, or check the video below for the reassembly phase.
And of course the final product, outside under natural light:
I’m gonna need a mop for all this drool on my keyboard.

It would look significantly better with some blacked out headlights. Black trim ring on the reflector, black out the blinker dish and use a nice LED, just delete the high beam altogether and use a hi/lo dish on the projector, or maybe do a second high beam projector but you'd get a 4 eyes look. Either way it can be done considering the amount of effort that went into it.

T
hat shit costs
FIVE FUCKING HUNDRED DOLLARS PER PINT
to do to factory spec.
NO, THAT IS NOT A TYPO. OR A MISUNDERSTANDING. OR A MISTAKE. FIVE HUNDRED GODDAMN DOLLARS, MINIMUM. Anything else ISN’T TO SPEC. It’ll get you close but it isn’t factory. And that shit is BRITTLE. Tap it with a fingernail and whoops you just spiderwebbed the basecoat.
Just fucking SEEING that thing OUTSIDE hurts my wallet.

There is a black 02 Silverado in my town with a center two tone done with that paint. Unfortunately it leans way more to brown than purple, or green and usually looks like baby’s shit

Yeesh. Well on the plus side, I don’t think it’s staying outside for long. Note the lack of wipers.

Back in the day there was a guy locally that used to autocross a Cobra in that color. I wonder if he knew how much each rock chip from running R compound tires cost...

Maybe he just bought one of the large ready-made batches from the factory. They’ll make you one if you ask.
Only twenty five thousand dollars . Cash up front please and thank you.
