I have to agree, the paint job is looking great Dan. However, that said, I don't know why everyone is into rally stripes on Beretta's all of a sudden anymore. I have to say, personal opinion, I think they look WAY out of place on a Beretta. But it's your car and to each his own. Still looks good in new paint bro! Grats! :D

I've always been fond of a white z with Quasar stripes. Not quite that fat tho.

All I'm going to ask is are they centered and equal in size? :) I'm sure they are though. Reminds me of the day when I put 6" wide vinyl on my red car (Oh being a child... I've come so far)... LOL couldn't do the bumpers though because then the lines would contour inward due to it being vinyl, you couldn't keep them straight.

Still a lot of work to do. They are painting the moldings and mirrors. Also it needs to be all put back together.

Honestly Dan the car looks terrific man! Whomever is painting it appears to be doing a stellar and quality job! Props there! And it's being done correctly!

One question. Are they doing your wheels as well? I think the wheels will stick out like a sore thumb against that shiny new paint job if they don't.

Looking good bro. :D
