Ordered my Stop tech lines so I'll tackle this at the same time to save on some DOT4.. Copper on Athens Blue FTW.

You guys ready?? I still couldn't decide on the color so I got both VHT gold flake and VHT burnt copper. Sprayed the copper. Loved it!

I'm happy with the color but I'll have to redo the driver side. Its not fun battling the elements without a garage. Weather was perfect til the end where it just got really windy. Ran into a lot of bumps in the road so it took way longer than I anticipated. First coat didn't looks that great so I used paint stripper and left it on a little too long and it ate away the OEM paint which isnt a problem, just made more work because now I wanted to remove the OEM paint and honestly thats the part that killed all the time. Lots of user error but I learned and I don't regret. When I redo the driver side it will be a lot easier since I don't have to worry about the OEM paint anymore. Enough rambling. HERE ARE THE PICS

Looks good but you did do a lot of extra work by removing the oem paint.

Tell me about it, back breaking work man. It wasn't part of the plan...
