Burning Blue Star IV Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 That looks great Alaska...Are you a professional painter? Painting cars is one thing that I would love to be able to do, along with all the body work stuff. For some reason, I just find it interesting.

alaska Posted March 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 Gun sprayed, Shooting clear now, Nice in ya dreams didnt mean to copy how did you do your fuse box? Blu no not professional by a long shot I painted a couple of cars back when in my 20's figured I would give it a shot and if I didnt work out I could always go aftermarket.

alaska Posted April 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 That looks really good. How does the laser etching work? Did you do it yourself? No I found a local guy it cost me a hole 15 bucks, I first painted to match then he took my image basically any image you want puts it in the computer and laser did the rest he started on low intensity took two passes and just etched out the paint didnt even touch the plastic. I also had some wheel center caps done which I am getting ready to post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
