I managed to get the bottom of the new floor panels, and rear inner section of the bus in paint. The engine bay will be sanded down and clear coated at some point during the paint process. It's nice to be able to trim in the color without the bed floor still in place. Every nook and cranny is covered. The blue is a custom mix. About 20% darker than the formula we started with. The darker version we came up with looks deep. A nice look, and a little different 8-)

Thanks bro!!! I'm stoked about this bus. The color took alot of time to get right. I made a few different spray out cards. Eliot, Paul, Chuck, and myself liked this version the best. The original formala came from ScottyG, thanks!. I believe it started out as a KCW mix.
