thanks man, ive actually considered doing a black roof when i was painting it but i didnt want it to be permanent incase i didnt like it. I might eventually do a gloss black overlay from bluebat so worse case is if i dont like it then i just take it right back off

paint job was $4500, and that included all the jams and everything and the 2 tone sections. i told them not to do the engine bay yet bc i still plan on doing some more work under there including a full wire tuck and a few more accents and i havent done it yet so i didnt want them to do all the work to paint it only to come back and redo it after i shave/fill all the left over holes

ha im working on it man, trying to find a spare set of valve covers that i can do right now. i might try to start the wire tuck on the headlights/fenders sometime next week and then if that goes well i might start the main harness by myself, but im just not sure if i wanna tackle the main harness by myself yet or not

just picked up the new nikon d5100 and have been spending the majority of yesterday and today learning some of the new scenes and effects that are offered with this one over the d3000 i was using. so far im pretty impressed with the camera and just need to perfect my shooting skills more. all the pics ive taken so far were done with the 18-55mm lens but i also have a 55-200mm lens which i havent tried out yet, but i did also pick up a tripod to help me out with some of the hdr shots and so on.
