Not sure the paint code .. but I could get it . The pic really dosnt match the tru color though .. digi pic looks more "orangey " then in real .

Truely ... the hard part on the whole job is removing the old panels , and cleaning up the skeleton for bonding . panels fit awesome , there is some body work on the fronts , because of the seam (you can see it in the first pics) .... I have tons of "newbies" do the stock style , all the time ..

realistically maybe 10 out of 20

it's actually more of a "labor of love" than a "money making machine" trust me .. it's more of a life style thing .
I love what I do .

I doubt my steel hood weighs much more than 20 <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/ignore.gif" alt="" /> but corey's fiberglass is NOT light, he uses alot to keep things strong....
