Design Paul Champagne -A public Thank You- PICS ADDED!

Former Vendor
Hello everyone,
first and foremost, a big thank you to Kevin. Not only did he do fantastic work on my shark, he also made me feel a lot better about myself. I now know that I am not the most **** person about details and striving for perfection. He is at least just as bad as I am
The rear quarters he created are really a thing of beauty
Even though we (Linda and I) have not yet had the chance to see the car both clean and in sunlight (it was pouring rain when we picked it up), I can still attest that it is beyond my expectations. Kevin went way beyond his mandate and created something really exceptional. It is as close to a new 928 as one could expect. New quarters, new paint, new rubber seals, new windshield, new mirrors and so much more
Kevin: please do ask your wife to post some of the pictures, as I will be late getting back home.
Those of you in the South know about the weird weather we are experiencing. That as complicated my return quite a bit. The car is driving like a champ. No issues at all. Nothing but a pleasure. But, we had to stop in Baton Rouge for the night, due to the freezing and snow coming through.
I am a bit anxious about the drive tomorrow. The weather itself should be fine, but some counties like to put gravel on the roads when black ice is expected, and that is pretty much my worse nightmare.
I will post back once I get home safe and sound
Thanks again Kevin

My god!
I am almost brought to tears by these photos. A new 928!
The only downside I see is that you can't drive it while the parts are out!
My hats off to you. Beautiful car doesn't even begin to cover it.

There are many many more pics fellas.. But I'm sending them to Paul and he can decide what he will do with them, but some of them are trade secrets and can't be posted as Paul and I have decided, LOL! Any way Gary Knox's GTS is even more awesome than when he brought it in and Bill's (ICCY928) track car is next. I have a possible on Hans Servasse and a 911 turbo coming in. My question to all of you, after Bill's, who's 928 will be next?

WOW on both jobs. WOW

Wow, Kevin are you the painter? It is such a big job painting 928s but I have to say well worth it. You do get a new car out of it when you are finished and it is surprising every time how good they look! In every colour even. I did my two at home, don't know if I could do a third but I would like to own a late model maybe a GTS for the 4 valve engine I may build.
The seats of course are the best, what else can I say there.

The color is Expresso braun metallic with an extra dose of high sparkle metallic which changes the tone a bit to the redder side of the spectrum. It is very deep and rich , and a very classy color.
