I just bought the black with purplish tint gullwing GT from Todd Martin at OU shown in these 2 pics:
I'm not buying that bs once you start it will run throooouuughghgh yyyooouuu like wild fire all over again.I have no desire to totally trick it all out as a major car show contender. Yeah, it'll get some chromy stuff that I have laying around. I'm also not planning on doing marathon work on it, like I did with my GTX. I'll probably only dive into it every day during the 6 months bracketing Winter time when there's no car shows or high heat.
Please, NO.On the subject of paint...........hmmmmm...........I'm really starting to think that maybe getting a wrap done to it might be a cool idea. Of course, my natural inclination to go maximum extreme dictates that I consider getting a chrome wrap of the whole car. Another possibility that just occured to me as I'm typing this is to have a wrap done to honor my local football team: The Philadelphia Eagles. Think about it. Gull wing = Eagles. Holy Schitt! OMG, that car would get soooooo many photographs taken of it and I'd surely get invited to parades, special events, and maybe even be asked to have it make appearances at games with the Eagles mascot standing up in it and us driving around! Definitely something to seriously consider!
I did a search of Eagles-themed car paint jobs and found these:

I belly laughed when I read that line!Cool car. Good luck with it.
I hope you are out of alligator material and have a 1.9L with a weber sitting around.
Also, good hoods arent hard to find.

And so it begins HAHAHAHAfootball team: The Philadelphia Eagles. Think about it. Gull wing = Eagles. Holy Schitt!

If he wraps instead of paint it will be easy to remove/restore to previous version no harm no foulPlease, NO.
You’ll have a very rare model of GT, don’t go painting it like the cars above. Keep this one classic.
You’re going to do what you want and it’s just my opinion, but think about it long-term and realistically. FYI, fans aren’t happening for the NFL this year, heck, the NFL may not happen this year.
