Yeah, for some reason he changed it to reverse alphabetical order.

Or... maybe re-arranging it in alphabetical order using last names?

That makes a lot more sense now doesn't it, and I thought it meant something else.

His name is Guy, he is the painter at Lloyds auto in Moorhead. He wont do body work but will do final prep and painting. His rate is $25 an hour and the booth fee is $250 for a car, probably less for just a hood. He is an excellent painter and has been spraying for over 25 years. He will work weekends and is extremely fast. Total spray time on my car was under 2 hours for sealer and 2 coats. I can pm you his cell number if you want to talk to him about your paint. Progressive is really great for hoods and smaller jobs.

If you could PM me his number that'd be awesome. I wanna get a few parts painted in the coming weeks. Also the Progressive place is that the one behind Jiffy Lube on 32nd and by Innovis?

If you stop at Progressive mention my name not Jim's. He will give you a better deal.:)

Yes, South and West of Innovis.

Looks good, I don't think I could do a flat color though.

I meant not shiny enough, you know it'll be less drag with a high gloss, then maybe you'd make it past Matt and Dave:icon_albino:
