I'm the owner of JMax Garage in Tucson, my homie owns Suspicious Garage in Phoenix. I'm mostly a bodyman/fabricator/designer. He is the man with the wrenches.

I'll be posting more pics soon.

147noob: dayum welcome back foo!

I like nason for solid colors. Yes it is cheaper than the dupont paint but suprise nason is the cheap brand of dupont. The same binder and pigments are used. I do clear with dupont 4700 clear or with ppg clear since those are the best clears i have sprayed... and those clears aren't cheap at all!

Been getting lots of compliments on the red color choice: not too bright (like Viper Red) and not to dull (like the OEM Supra MKIV red).
