    Looks good though. Please tell me you'll pull the glass!

    Both windows will be done with the string. I chose not to pull the windows,especially the rear.

    Can but I'm not. It's a factory windshield.

    i paid 3000 for my bronzit paint job with 5 coats of clear. I got a "friends and family" discount to some degree.

    they are getting allot done in 2 days too! mine took like 3 weeks!
    3 weeks is what I was told it would take to finish. Im ok with that,I'd be fine with a month also. Just dont want a rush job on something like this.
