That looks awesome and looks to be great quality work. Who sprayed it for you and did you prep it yourself or did they do it?

Thanks! The pictures dont really do it justice as it has a real deep shine and came out flat as. :drool:

A mate of mine did it at his work and he actually did all the panel work too :beer I helped out where I could to keep costs down.
