There will be a triple reflective pinstripe around the entire two-tone break line . . . 1/4" Red / 1/8" Blue / 1/8" Blue . . . The photos really don't capture the beauty of that dark blue color (called Hydro Blue).

NICE!!! In the pics Bob posted of the paint mod progress, one can see the Hydro Blue on the front bumper (looks like upper section) in one pic. The other pic shows the rear bumper cover behind the car but I can't quite make out the color scheme on it. But with the pics above, one can imagine what the car will look like. Like I said, NICE!!!

Bob - Are you repainting the SSB color?

Car is starting to get that new look. I like the update above with the bumper covers re-mounted. Anxious to see final product.

Right now it has the original SRT6 wheels that I recently had refurbished. I may switch to Mandrus Millenium wheels when it's time for new tires.

I'm starting to put the SRT6 coupe back together . . . Installed new headlights and three HID conversion kits for the low beam, high beam and for the fog lights. Lots of things to do before she's ready for Crossfire Fun in the Ozarks (Round 4).

Nice job red dog
What color is the blue?
I thought about before about doing a sunburst orange (copper) with the ssb, had a few different lines I was playing around with using rolls of painter's tape

Thanks . . . It's called Hydro Blue Pearl Coat - I think the paint code is PBJ - I'm still needing to complete the re-assembly and pin striping. I've gotten side-tracked with replacing the headliner, some other interior work and some other separate projects . . .
