thanks dynamite, I would have to admit that the headlights took longer to get done thatn the paint job and the rims combined, should go into buisness, it sure beats @ 400 bucks for a new pair though. Sandpaper, and Mothers Alum polish, for @40 bucks ,a little elbow grease, well alot of elbow grease..lol

I painted it myself, paint, primer,clear, and all the reducers and sandpaper, was just under $500.00..It was DuPont product...and thanks
P.S. if ya do it yourself I know the darker colors ( brown, black,dark green) are about half that cost. Red is the most expensive color. I just painted a Stratus R/T Viper Black. and I think the total was $260.00 for everything.
I'm going to put some old fashion deck stipes on it the weekend with a white pearl addative in clear coat, I'll post those pics,, the stripes should turn out the same color as the car, just with more sparkle to them, kinda like a hidden srtipe, untill ya look at it close...we'll see how it turns out..lol
