They just painted the hood (underside also). I didn't even have to leave them the car, just brought them the hood and the paint codes. I use Richey Collision here in Houston, they specialize in Corvette painting. The color match is perfect. On a metallic car, they would probably want to blend.

haha Patman, I hear ya! I have this one on a 3-yr "Smartbuy" deal. Still have about 2 yrs to go on it. At that time, I have the option to buy it for the baloon payment, sell it outright, or turn it in. The baloon price on Corvettes is typically a few grand less than what they would sell for at three years, so it was a good deal. If I ever sell the car, I'm sure the replacement will be even sweeter. I don't usually downgrade

WOW!!!

Here's my DSOM C6 and a real Daytona Sunset (I live in Daytona!).

This was taken about a year ago. Your camera is a lot better resolution than mine. This was real quick, and if I'd been able to get the car outside about 45 seconds earlier the sky would have been a little more orange and not so red, and you might have been able to see the car better.

Thanks for the great pix!

Bob

Cool looking sky there Bob! Try shooting some before it gets that dark, prefferibly with a little sunlight still hitting the side of your car. Metallics really look awesome in sunset/sunrise beams.
