spring bucket

Look at my new project! Been working on it for awhile now and i think i am done w/ 800 grit sandpaper. Maybe I will 800 one more time. this is what it looks like on both side of the car. What do you guys think of it?

You are gonna need to chrome your nuts and bolts too and get a few things painted.

Well, if i can i want to put some better nuts and bolts in their. I did paint the interior. Does that count. hehe Just wait till i get the calipers on the car. I am still cleaning it. I still can't make up my mind on a color for them. I am going back and forth between a litter teal, or Electric Blue.

My vote is for Electric blue for sure. Will be a better contrast to LS IMO.

I think electric blue is a sexy color but it won't be too much blue on the would it. Just look at my engine bay. Color matching the plastic, the blue grounding kit, and for the future blue samco hoses. I have a lot of blue. But at least i'll be the only one w/ Electric blue

I have too much time on my hands right now. The Spring buckets is almost done. I was sanding it down yesterday w/ 1000 grit, and i can now see my reflection in it.
