I was gonna say the same thing. Point me to a 2500.00 QUALITY paint job and I would change the color of my cars every couple of years. The best price I can get is 5k in my area.

If your interested, and located in the San Diego area shoot me a PM. No BS here, I grew up doing this with a friend do this, main focus where the classic and only played with quality material. The only thing/reason why I could see the price peaking that high is

1. The most obvious, a change a color, and
2. Significant amount of body work.

Regardless, lets redirect back to the OP post. I like where he's heading, car looks awesome, and thanks to the other for replying

Love how the OEM hood looks in 3rd pic. Nice setup, looking forward to seeing it with wheels.

It's subtle. I didn't even notice till you pointed it out. Once you take a good look though it's pretty menacing. Like it.
