Msuperteks New Paint Job!

Well, the paint job is complete, now after it dries for a week I will install my gas can and high lift jack. This paint (as I learned the last time I painted it) dries slowly since I have no heaters to heat it. It will take about 2 to 3 days to dry hard then I'll put my spare back on and all the accessories. One odd thing about this is I actually used the picture below to match the paint color, however the colors look a lot lighter then the samples I chose. Oh well, I think it still come out ok. Topper will be made next weekend and the doors will get covered with the left over canvas from the top.

Here's a pic of the mach Paint Job that was decided by my poll. A.
