I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

My car doesn't have custom paint, but a friend of mine owns a body shop and sprays PPG and has a PPG mixer. Some of the cars are ridiculously perfect.

I do know that if you go with a shop that's PPG certified you are going to get a higher quality job (not that other guys can't do a good job). PPG certified shops have to go through classes, etc.

Hell yea, my car is stock right now, but when it gets sprayed black it will be PPG by a PPG certified pro, I already got the shit lined up, just need to wait till I get the money, most likely as soon as it gets warm, since im not gonna get my car sprayed while its snowing (and salting :evil:)
