Wanna see the pics when you get them. How much did they charge you for the job ? I have gone to 5 body shops here in Omaha and none of them will paint the mirrors or bumpers, they say it wont stick....

My mirrors are fine - The main problem its a pain for the body shop, They have to use a Flex agent with the paint, it also time consuming and alot of shops won't do it because they maybe worried about repainting it if it ever peels.

Love to see the Flame photos, My Cruiser is presently in the shop as well and I going nuts waiting for my baby

I tried posting earlier but the file was too large (about 1meg) so I have to figure out how to resize it 1st. Everyone at work just loved them. I told them I didn't dress for Halloween cause I dressed the car instead!

It was a "package" deal. I was getting some body work repaired anyway & insurance was paying 1/2 of that. So I had planned to get the bumpers & mirrors painted anyway. The flames were my wifes idea. I wanted them since the 1st day I bought the Cruiser.
She figured that if I spend enough money I would just keep the car... Well I am just putting that on hold for a couple years now.

By the time I'm ready to buy again, there will be plenty of used turbos out there is great shape or a newer 2 door version

If you really wanna know how much, send me a PM & I'll reply. He was very reasonable I thought considering all the extra work involved. (I'm kinda a pain in the B_ _ T)
