Jim, this is a beautiful choice! The paint process is already looking great. Nice, bold color you've chosen for yourself!

Dmitry, know anyone in Illinois (maybe Wisconsin) that has an extra set of CCW's they want to part with? Otherwise I'm gonna have to use a set of reps until I can order new ones. I also would consider work meister s3.
Maybe that person out there with the extra set has a big win lip they want to thrown into the deal too... lol

This is true show quality stuff here. Even clearcoated the inside sections of each part. I love that kind of attention to detail!

Would love to see this thing one day. Great choice on the color.
