I'm thinking the top sides of those inner fenders might stand out a bit too much with that high gloss finish. Then again, with the added bling of that awesome motor you've got it could look good.
Thanks!
SPI epoxy will dull up to a nice semi-gloss when it cures.

Man those panels look awesome. I've been trying to keep up with the different primers you have used, but have gotten confused as to the colors of them and what parts of the car you sprayed them on. I know epoxy is the first on everything. I plan on going back into the thread tomorrow and figure out the sequence. It's like reading a good book. lol.
