    Great job awesome car from the pictures I'm seeing it looks better than a lot of the cars I see at the autorama every year here in slc great job. By the way what paint color is that on your ride rangoon candy apple?

    The paint color is called "Jalapeno Red" purchased from a company called Urekem(Urekem.com).  They are a low profile company but I decided to give them a shot after reading good reviews on them. The paint and clear coat system they offered turned out really great.  Since I am a college student making money on my own by selling car parts I dont need or deals I run into to turn around and make a profit from, I couldnt really afford the high dollar Deltron/PPG Paint. I did however use PPG's Self etching primer and High build Primer they offer.  That stuff really builds good. Not too expensive too.  Urekem offers a Primer kit on their website as well, but I decided to use PPG' primer as my foundation for paint instead. Their Customer Service was excellent too!
