    Props to Black89GT

    Just another example of the spectacular work that Ryan does....

    The previous owner of my car had hit a curb on his way to pick me up at the airport... it wasn't real noticeable except when washing/waxing/etc since with some touch-up paint, you couldn't really tell... but the paint was cracked in several spots... not to mention, a big-rig had lost a tire infront of the prev. owner and it smacked the very lower lip, removing a couple nice chunks of paint that i had to touch up..... since it wasn't very obvious, i drove the car like this for 1 year to see if I could drive on these roads with the car so low...

    So Ryan painted the front bumper recently, and it looks magnificent... i couldnt' have imagined it coming out better!

    Seen your ride when I dropped off some stuff to him, it looks real good!

    Man, that car is stupid low though! I had to do the finger-test under the front bumper, I think I fit 3...

    If it looks good, you'll see it. If it sounds good, you'll hear it. If it's marketed right, you'll buy it. But if it's real, you'll feel it. IG: @donuttrump

    Awesome paint work looks amazing! I hate little scuffs in my paint. I have a few, but not enough to paint the car yet.. It bothers me when washing and waxing though so I know how you felt haha..

    Anyways, Great job Black89GT. Looks amazing!

    Seems like the PO had bad luck!

    Good to know a good local painter, I'm going to be getting a few parts that will need painted. Wasn't blown away with the DSG paint I got re shot on my hood. The hood and fenders look off.

    Ryan also took care of a couple other things for me... the widebody gets a little chipped up just from driving the car... so he repainted those and the rockers... rockers weren't too bad, but i figured why not...


    He also applied some 3M clear bra to those areas that easily get chipped from general driving around, so hopefully it won't be needed again...

    This is what I want.

    What are his prices for painting like? Is this out of a shop or his home?

    Awesome thanks.

    I don't think I've ever seen you around the area. I'm never really in Bethal though.
