    Just about finished the cuda this weekend. We had some things take a little longer than expected so we did not start it, but it looks like we will be on the road next weekend  :burnout: and the current forcast is sunny with a chance of haulin a$$. My painter is coming over this week to install the hockey stripes. Here are some pictures for you. Also for those of you who are wondering the Goodmark grille fits great. I used the Totally Auto dark argent paint to paint the grille. I would highly reccomend the Goodmark grille.

    I was going to paint it silver (I have the correct light argent paint from Totally Auto), but after seeing it in black (Six Pack Performance paints all of theirs black before they ship out) I decided to leave it.

    I was going to suggest the light silver argent as a Shaker color earlier but figured you must really like the Black.  I love it when people detail the Shaker vent scoops in the dark argent like the grille and then use a Chrome paint pen and paint the front edge of the Horizontil Shaker scoop grilles.  :2thumbs:

    I'll have better pictures this weekend when I go up to Redding, but my painter came over tonight and installed the stripes for me. In one of the pictures there are a couple of "orbs" which I guess some people believe are ghosts  :dunno:. Maybe I watch too much TV.
