You're right, it is a 13W7. The lid piece just got back from airbrush, as a matter of fact. It was done by one of the top East Coast air brushing guys. We had a tough time figuring out what to put down for designs, since the customer just said do whatever you want up to $2,200. So that's what we shot for. :D

Here's a look at some of the early work. It still needs to get clear coated and wet sanded, but you get the rough idea.

The missing sides etc in this shot are getting worked on right now.

I've had this car kicking around the shop for getting close to a year now. I'm a little tired of working on it. :lol: The customer won't stop adding and changing things, though.

Right now, I have a home in both MA and NH. I choose to regester in NH because it's far cheaper. Insurance is slightly less also.

In NH, the law is nothing on the fronts, 35 on the rear sides, and 5 on the back. All non-reflective.

is that a W7 in the back of that hatchback? Those rims remind me of the Biship Don Juan "green for the money, gold for the honies"

How's that for green for the money and gold for the honey? :lol:

While the paint apears gold, it's actually a green to gold flip flop with gold flake and green pearlesence. It makes for a very interesting combo when in the sun light. :)

BTW, this picture is taken without my sub trim rings, so don't mind their rough edges.

hold on did you say remote controlled spinners???? That. Is. Awesome.

Oh ya, tint looks good too :D

Well, mildly controlled, anyhow. Just spin, nothing else like directional control or even stop. It works a little like a turbo, actually. ;)

I was speaking more along the lines of double layer 5%.

Is that what they do? It doesn't seem that dark. Sheesh, at double layers of 5%, they might as well just spray paint the glass black!

Tint looks nice. I'll hold back on the wheels; if that's what you like, then I'm happy for you there! :tup:
