yes i own my own shop....with my dad and brother.....they do the engine rebuild and electrical sense i'm still learning in that department, and i do the body and paint work. I have my dad help with the sanding and such because in order to get the car out in a timly manner i just plain need the help.

Normally it takes between 2-4 weeks depending on the extent of paint and body work that needs done.

And yes two tone is a very big thing on the east coast.....I have seen many two tone cars this season at the NCCA judjes events (HIN, Tuner War, Carlisle events, Hot Import Days, Night Shift, Super Tuner Show). Most of the main two tone is black and red/blue/purple. Although I have seen black and green, blue and orange, black and orange, ect. Most people don't realize that a show car needs to have eye catching paint, something that draws people over to the car when it is with other cars. Therefore alot of show cars have flake or pearls in them. They also seem to have more airbrushing then any other cars. For instance if you have a line up of blue, black, white, and red cars and then have mine in there......what car would catch your eye......probabily mine because of the contrast in color as well as the flames and flake. Once something has caught your eye you more then likly look at it...then decide weither you like it or not....therefore the paint did it's job by bringing you over to the car.
