NICE! Just what I've been working on for a bit today. I think my yellow is gonna be a little darker and I might put the black on the outside for a dull look. Where'd you get the decals? Your headlights / grill is different than mine, and I'm assuming you used chrome sticker stock for the windows and bumpers?

Thanks for the info.

Nope that is 100% paint and all the paint is on the inside of the shell, no stickers or decals of any kind.

Sublime is a great color—one of my favorite of all of the Chrysler High Impact paints (and I have a soft spot for Panther Pink, too). Can't wait to see it, Chris!
