Re: Project Lex
Looks awesome, I don't get why everyone is so obsessed with making it darker.
I want my cars painted!

Re: Project Lex
Very nice, looks great.
Feel comfortable sharing how much he charged? Just kind of curious for something like this. I could see myself wanting to do this to the evo in the next few years just to clean it up. Assuming the price isn't super high.

Re: Project Lex
I mentioned the price earlier, but he told me prices have gone up now because he has been getting so many jobs lately he can't keep up. If you are truly interested I can give you his number, but I'm waiting to see the actual final result with my own eyes before recommending him. So far though he's been great to work with, great communication, couldn't ask for anything more at this point. I hope the results are just as good as well.

If I did change the color, some of my top pics would be that metallic graphite color my Envoy is, or a metallic burnt orange like on corvettes, or the supra anthracite color. Maybe someday if I build another one and tear it down to nothing I will do a while new color

You may be right. I think they look a little lighter in the sun though. Either way they need to be buffed because they look kind of dull right now. Time to bust out that new buffer
