My New Paint Job
Just wanted to throw up some pics of 351coupe's work. Awesome painter, very meticulous, perfectionism seems to be one of the traits of a great painter and Bryans got the perfectionism bug. Anyway, on to the pictures, tried to get some close ups of the body panels and some over all pictures. I bought a used front bumper to replace the one that was on the car when I gave it to Bryan, but it had these huge ridges all over it, Bryan saved me a ton of money by being so bad ass and being able to save my bumpers I brought to him. Acura wanted 400+ bucks for a brand new front bumper, I bought a front and rear bumper off craigslist for 100 bucks. Bryans the man.
This is how Bryan received the car from me. There were little dents all over the whole car, a few on the body line of the car, the paint was faded on the hood and roof so I know those got extra prep.



And this is the final product I received back.









Thanks again Bryan for all the hard work you put in to getting my car back to looking awesome again. If you want your car done right the first time, definitely check out Bryan at B A Customs, hes the f'n man.Last edited by SuburbanNoize; 09-14-2010 at 08:50 PM.

Also, when Bry received my car at his shop, the door panels were taken off, the door handles on the interior were taken off, when he called and said my car was done, I was excited, but a little less excited thinking That as soon as I got it back, Id have to be out in the hot sun installing all my interior stuff again, I showed up, all the interior was put back together and he had detailed the interior of the car. Just another testament to his profesionalism and dedication to customer satisfaction.

Bryan can most definitely lay down some paint. And it absolutely feels like a brand new car. Could not be more happy with the way the car came out. And the thing with Bryan is, hes not just a car painter, the mans an artist. Thanks for the compliments guys.

You might want to wait a while before waxing a fresh paint job. Long after a fresh paint job the paint is still curing/evaporating chemicals. A layer of wax traps these chemicals in the paint and can cause problems such as bubbling or lifting. I would wait a good six months before you wax her. Also, there is another product that 3M makes that is good for this. Glaze coat. It works like a wax but allows the paint to Breath or evaporate and cure. Just my 2 cents...

I told him to wait 90 days to wax it,usually by then it's done releasing.It was wetsanded and buffed then glaze coated,then I rinced it off good and glazed it by hand before it left my shop.Again,thanks for the compliments everyone.
