The black Wrap I put on the shifter AND Parking Brake started to come a loose!  :rage: I think the cold weather aided in this baffoonery! I'll try again Saturday!  :facepalm:

I got my windows tinted over the weekend. 35% all the way around. Next I'm wrapping the Halo in gloss black.

Finally got around to painting the Calipers! I'm pleased with the outcome! I almost ordered the CORVETTE Vinyls in yellow but decided on silver instead. This kit is the closes to powder caoting I've ever seen! Waaaaaaay more gloss than those rattle can kits. We shall see how well it holds up!

Is it special high temp heat?

I'm not sure if it's special but usually heat is warmer and on brakes usually high temp :lol:

Nope! I painted them right on the car.

Yes the paint is. I used the G2 Paint Kit!

Good choice on the silver for the decals. Yellow over red would look weird IMO.

Right! Kinda Ronald McDonald-ish! LOL!!!

UGH!!! Got a flashing Engine Light today! My scanner reads Open Circuit on Fuel Injector Cylinder #7. I checked all the connections and they seem fine! It's late so I'll fiddle with it tomorrow!  :facepalm:

Meanwhile I got my LED Markers!  :rockon:



Really didn't need the clear Coat cuz I ended up wrapping them in the end....

Looks sweet. Saw a friend this weekend that has a '65 Mustang (repainted) in that exact same color.

ONE YEAR UPDATE: Car is fine! Spent today replacing the #7 Spark Plug and Wire. That's was the cause of the Check engine light I was getting. Car still as strong ass it was a year ago. Pretty uneventful first year. Next up is tires. Rears are almost to the wear bars.......

Soooooooo! Today my gas gauge dies! Sending Unit is bad and it's hella labor to get both (The Dealer will only do both) Units out! I'm gonna shop around for prices or make it a winter project! Funny that the 283K Rolla has a working Gas Gauge but my 77K Vette doesn't.  :banghead:
